Updating Website

Today has been devoted to getting my website switched over to the new domain name and making sure all the links still work. I also changed the formatting just because every time I update the website, I feel compelled to change how it looks. I've updated the main page and all of the "gallery" pages and next I need to update all the "attic" pages as well as updating my "about the artist" page. (No matter what I write, it always strikes me as pretentious so I'm never happy with that one.)

The new website (at least when it's all done) will be entirely graphics based. I decided that we've finally reached the point technologically where you can assume people aren't accessing your site with the really old dial-up modems. I'm not saying there probably aren't still people out there using them, but if they are they won't be surfing an art site which is clearly devoted to images.

Works in Progress

I've got three main paintings in-progress right now. "Sun King" (which I've been fiddling with for over a year because I keep changing my mind about the colors), "Ascension" (also a project I've been fiddling with for ages), and ... whatever I finally decide to call the Fireworks one. My first choice was "Sparkle" but fo some reason that doesn't sound right.

(All are upside down from the camera's viewpoint in this photo.)

For some reason, I seem to work in bursts where I finish several paintings at once and then go for ages where I can't seem to finish anything. I'm encouraged that all three of these are wrapping up nicely and I've got an idea I'm kind of excited about for the next new project.
