I invest considerable time and thought into my creations, and their personal significance to me is becoming increasingly evident as I discover how the work resonates with others. I had overlooked this aspect for most of my career, which was a significant oversight. “Showing my work” has taken on a newfound importance, and how it's presented and shared has become even more crucial.
I've resisted sharing my work for various "reasons" over the years and working on my own websites always seemed like a chore. The only inspiration I had was an idea for a network of websites interconnected by a central hub. Changing my perspective and reframing how I approached my work was instrumental in overcoming this hurdle. Recognizing that it's ultimately a battle between "me vs me" (I carve my path according to my vision) has kept me focused on my vision.
Many of us fundamentally know these "truths," but the real challenge lies in continually adjusting our perspective until these truths become integrated into our daily practices. Over time, and hopefully, these become “ways of being.”
For the past few weeks, I've been building out my galaxy. It's an extensive endeavor and will require substantial time to complete. There's much to be done, from scanning to website development, encompassing branding, custom typography, art, and design. Furthermore, there's the matter of crafting the language to encapsulate it all.
The first project I am presenting is my work for Ghostly International, which is part of my larger "visual communication" portfolio. I really appreciate you so I am giving you the first view and I will announce this publicly on Thursday. There are links to three mini-sites, some assets and some simple easter eggs.
And so, the journey begins. I extend my heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support, friendship, comments, and even the simple act of liking my work. Wishing you peace and the very best.
