I haven't been building web sites since the early '90s, I'm not at the cutting edge of technology, and I don't pretend to know even a fraction of it all. But I have always loved design and art-making, I do possess an eye for simplicity and sweetness, and I know I know how to make a work shine. If you need a web site built, a logo designed or a special one-of-a-kind product created, drop me a line. I especially love working with small business owners, non-profit organizers and self-motivated artists who are passionate about their work and lives. Here's a short list of available services: Web · Consulting · Design/development · Production/maintenance · E-commerce set-up Print · Identity/logo design · Collateral design · Publication design · Custom invitations Illustration · Editorial · Greeting cards · Gift products Feel free to visit the Projects section for examples of my work.
