New Website
I had my sweet boyfriend make a portfolio website for me a few years ago. Unfortunately I think we (he) ended up updating it like once since then. Since there's not much hope of ever keeping it updated regularly if I can't do it myself, which I currently can't, I'm going to abandon the old site pretty soon. I'm moving things over to a tumblr blog. It sort of seemed like a terrible idea until I realized I could organize everything with keywords and tags! So you can just click on Look, Read, Watch, Wear, or Buy from my page to go to everything from that category. And, after Channing helping me for only a few brief (okay, sort of long) hours, I was able to get everything working pretty much exactly as I wanted! We even finally figured out how to add paypal buttons, so you can buy zines and bags directly from me and I don't have to worry about etsy listings expiring or other annoying etsy things. I'm also uploading my videos to Vimeo so that I can have higher-quality versions online all in the same place instead of having them spread over two youtube channels. They'll still be on youtube, too, but now it's easier to access all of my videos from one page, and the earlier videos will be higher-quality than was once available on youtube. I'm really excited to be starting over, since I've been pretty unhappy that the official online representation of my work was mostly a representation of my work from three years ago. I'm planning to continue using this blog to talk about things I'm working on, keeping the portfolio and works-in-progress slightly separated. So thanks Channing, for helping me realize my dreams.
