Welcome

Hi and welcome to my artist blog! Here I hope to share recent news about my art work and my artist website: www.mydepictions.co.uk, plus my ramblings about building a website. Lets get this straight: I am not a professional web master, or a techie, just an enthusiastic amateur web designer who has hand-built my own web site. Why? Because I found I enjoyed hand coding, I wanted full control over design, layout and modifying content, plus I wanted a challenge! There are many areas I lack knowledge in, or need to update, and, there is much to learn. In short, I am no webmaster, but rather, master of my own web site. I have learnt a lot of what I know from others on the web and, in turn, am happy to disseminate that knowledge.

The eye picture in my profile is in fact a self portrait! I use it as a favicon for my web site, here on my blog, and in other profiles. As an artist, I mostly produce portraits and other custom art commissions. I am able to turn my hand to many different styles and techniques, which most likely has been a hinderance, rather than a help! (Highly sucessful artists seem to have specialised in, or evolved a single style or technique.) I offer promotional samples of small format art work for auction under the ebay user ID mydepictions.
