Burke Roofing

I don't often have the opportunity to design logo's and when Burke Roofing asked me to design their first website, they gave me a chance to design their logo too. The design was inspired by their tagline, "Three Generations Strong".

Pat McVay Sculpture

One of my very first website design jobs and his site remained much the same, since it's launch in 1995. I'm thrilled to announce his new and improved site, launched April 2008!

Pat's talent, combined with his wicked sense of humor, gives his sculptures that distinct look that sets it apart from anyone else!

The newest division of Wazu-Tech (headquartered in Paris). These folks make the coolest low-impact nomadic dwellings... think yourte, but with a nice big deck. They also do those artistic solar protection sails- just gorgeous! What a thrill it is to be part of their big move to the States!

no longer on-line

A little corner of peace and tranquility, nestled among nature in Clinton. Since 1992 they have been offering a variety of services, including Acupuncture and Asian Body work.

This tight-knit community wanted to be able to communicate on-line with eachother, so we designed a site that would allow them to post neighborhood news and events.

This retro themed site includes a forum where community members can communicate, plus a 'private', password protected section for downloading sensitive documents they didn't want available to the general public.

This is the second design I've done for this group of boutique wineries on Whidbey Island. The goal: That residents and visitors alike are able to enjoy their fine crafted wines.

Working with clients that are made up of many decision makers is a sort of art form. Keeping folks, often with differing opinions on task, is a bit like walking a tight rope, only without the risk of falling on your head.
