Third semester begins tomorrow
Vacation is over. After spending most of the summer working on our new house, I’m going back to school for my third semester in graphic design. Again, lots of courses, but the one I’m the more eager to be part of is the first of four web design classes. Even if I have owned and created websites since 1997, I will finally learn to do them the right way. I will still continue to post my projects on this blog as they are completed. I’ll also, from time to time, broadcast my project live on ustream as I’m working on them. I’ve already done so during the summer with a digital painting project as some of you have discovered.
May inspiration be with me. 
Semester 2 begins today
Vacation is over. My second semester as a graphic design student begins today. In the next four months, I will learn Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator (CS4) and will also have the following courses: Graphic Design II, Drawing II, Creativity I, Applied Arts History II and Communication Techniques II. I will post my projects right after they are graded by my teachers if time permits, otherwise they will be available at the end of the semester. Most my first semester projects are available on this blog.
May inspiration be with me.
My new Creative Portfolio
As many of my twitter and facebook followers already know, I’ve gone back to college in Graphic Design this past September after losing my job as a Geomatics Specialist. Going back to school at 37y/o is quite an experience especially when most of your classmates are close to 20 years younger than you. My first semester was quite a success and I can’t wait to learn more about this discipline.
I decided to create this blog to feature my present and past work, ranging from art, audio production, graphic and web design to photography. As of now, only my recent creations are displayed but my past work will soon be posted. The decision of using a blog came because my personal website was out-of-date (2007) and, lets face it, difficult to update. With this wordpress blog, I will be able to get my project out there faster without using precious time. I also decided to write in English instead of French because I can reach more people and get more exposure. If you like what you see, let me know.
