I’ve finished the redesign of kisserup.com, and am now working on a business card and brochure. I’m also taking care of a brochure/business card combination for the Walker Inn, which my mum bought a little while ago. I’m working on various smaller projects for the Halifax Cranberry Company, and am today starting on a revamp […]

Russian Deficiency
The winter blues were rough this year. I’m blaming it on my having lost my Doestoevsky. The Switch’s website is coming along swimmingly, and I’ve started work on a redesign of kisserup.com. I’ve got another project backburnered as I don’t like to have too much on the go at once, but I seem to be […]
All I Want for Christmas…
Just when I was starting to think I was about to have a boring week, everything suddenly got crazy. First, this local Halifax band (name to be finalized soon!) contacted me about doing a website, which means I get to get put on the guest list for their shows and sit around drinking Caesars and […]
Nabokov and Friends
Once more the pre-winter pre-Christmas blues are settling into my bones and turning me into a bed-potato, which is essentially the same thing as a couch potato, except that instead of watching Everybody Loves Raymond six times a day, I curl up with Russian authors. That said, I’m undergoing all kinds of personal growth & […]
Flash Floods, Fires, and Dances
It’s only taken me about half a year, but I’ve finally crossed an item off my perennially growing “to-do” list: add flash to portfolio. I’ve always been fond of this monologue from Fear & Loathing, and not solely because it seems like a shopping list for debauchery. While I was at it, I added a […]
Inside Dish on the Worst Client Ever
Brambles Antiques is finally finished, complete with a fully functional backend admin panel. (Screenshots to follow!) I spent a good long time re-re-re-designing T&S, to what is at least a temporary satisfaction, and I’ve learned that I’m infinitely my pickiest, most annoying, and most demanding client. And I’m refusing to work for myself ever again.
Paint
I’ve finally settled into Lunenburg and am in the process of repainting my whole apartment, which is growing in scope exponentially every time I find more paint chips in a hardware store. I’ve just finished the Idealbikes website, and I’m currently breaking the ice with two new clients, both based in Lunenburg. New website should […]
Going Small-Town
Despite the seemingly dead-ishness of my portfolio etc, a LOT has been going on. I’ve accepted a job offer at HB Studios in beautiful rainy Lunenburg, and am busily working on front-end for Rugby 2006. I’ve packed up and left Halifax, though it’s only an hour an a half away by car. I’m working on […]
Tiny Girly Guard
I’m only just now getting the hang of writing 2005 instead of 2004. I’m working a security job, which means I spend twelve hours a night playing with my pencils in an empty building in Eastern Passage. If I only had a laptop, I would be the world’s most productive moonlighter. I’m currently negotiating what […]
The Virgo and the Pixel
I’m beginning to learn my life would be far easier if I were capable of just letting things alone already. Instead, I redesign, I redesign, I redesign, and I’m never happy with what I’ve come up with after having spent forty hours staring at it at 400% magnification, trying to get divs to line up […]
