I’ve up and redesigned my portfolio site. It’s in a style that I like, but other people might hate. Eh. My business cards are now obsolete, but really the stylings I had before are, like, a precursor to the style there now, y’know—art historically (faintly, I’m sure, but I don’t mind). Anyway, if you see something broken or stupid, let me know. Below is a screenshot of the opening page. I likes it. There’s more tinkering to be done (the “Shop” button does nothing), but pretty much there it is.
