Blogging constitutes a regular part of my art practice. I recently evaluated a number of posts and decided to create a special page with active links to design topics, book reviews, relevant topics such as exhibiting your art work as well as hands-on tutorials for your convenience. (Last update: December 31st, 2021)
Thank you for your interest and support over the years. I hope you find the information helpful!
