I have been a creative person ever since I was old enough to hold a pencil at the age of 4. I started drawing on every scrap of paper I could find to the point where my mother couldn’t keep typewriter paper in the house without my finding and stealing it. I never stopped drawing throughout school, and in 1995 I was accepted to the Graphic Design program at the Nova Scotia Community College in my hometown of Truro where I had formal training in all the basics of design: composition, aesthetics, form, function, typography and pre-press, all of which revolved around learning the best graphic software available, Adobe’s Photoshop and Illustrator. Upon graduation with honors, I was accepted into Interactive Technology also at the Nova Scotia Community College in 1997, where I learned to use my design skills to create websites, CDRoms, video production, 2D and 3D animation and programming. Immediately after graduation in 1998 I was hired into the booming web industry. This was my first experience not only dealing with a team, but also working directly with clients on a project-to project basis. During my 11-year career I worked for a number of professional companies performing both web and Screen printing is a printing technique that uses a woven mesh to support an ink-blocking stencil. The attached stencil forms open areas of mesh that transfer ink or other printable materials which can be pressed through the mesh as a sharp-edged image onto a substrate. A roller or squeegee is moved across the screen stencil, forcing or pumping ink past the threads of the woven mesh in the open areas. Screen printing is also a stencil method of print making in which a design is imposed on a screen of silk or other fine mesh, with blank areas coated with an impermeable substance, and ink is forced through the mesh onto the printing surface. It is also known as silkscreen, seriography, and serigraph.
