I have just about wrapped up the most fun and creative website I’ve had the opportunity to work on for quite a while. The website is for Tisha Paige, an artist and illustrator. You can view the site at TishaPaige.com.
It is a little intimidating for me to create a website for another artist. I’m used to expressing my creativity and design aesthetic for other people. For most websites, the client tells me a sort of “style” they’d like to achieve and leave it up to me to make it happen. I get a lot of free reign in terms of design. In this case, I had to take Tisha’s marvelous artwork and translate her vision onto the web. It was a challenge, but I had such wonderful raw material to work with! Not only is Tisha a talented illustrator, but she has done some really creative 3-Dimensional work as well as paintings.
I really got to flex my CSS layout skills with this one in order to place the navigation crows among their paisley branches. This site also gave me the opportunity to create a complete custom WordPress theme that Tisha will use for her sketchbook and works in progress.
