I didn't do much painting and drawing after college, as my IT career picked up. But I did teach myself how to create art with the computer. For about a decade, now, I've dabbled in the digital arts. Much of the focus there has been on beautifying web and Windows applications. I've otherwise found creating digital art for friends and family a great outlet.

My main career focus has been as a software developer, but I have really enjoyed the opportunities I've had to integrate what modest artistic skill I do have into my work.

Below are some examples of works of pure art and professional graphics work applied to software applications I've also written. You'll note that while I enjoy creating pure art for its own sake, I am very conservative when it comes to adorning professional web applications. The primary goal has always been maximizing usability while making the viewing experience pleasant.
