The primary goal of this project is the creation of an artist website that will promote my literary work. I currently own an experimental website featuring film, art, and music by a variety of artists, as well as my own written and recorded work. This new site will act as a more traditional promotion of my work. It will also serve as a cross-promotional tool for my literary magazine, PRØOF, and for the work of other local artists whom I support. The secondary goal lies in the process. Through continued mentorship with local artist Kathy McTavish, I hope to expand my skill set and become a skilled coder and web designer. I will craft the code of this website by hand, and in doing so will become more proficient in the languages of HTML5 and CSS3 and develop web design skills, which will both improve me as an artist and develop my marketable skills. The computer I currently own does not have the capacity to create work of the caliber and speed that I wish to present.I will measure the audience reached using a tool available through the hosting service Bluehost, which measures various statistics regarding traffic on its members' domains.
