Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
The development of a website will enlarge my digital skills and increase my ability to publicize my work. My ability to scan and organize images should be quite visible in the quality of the website. 2: The creation of a website and exhibition of work should help expand my visibility as an artist. By the engaged public and critical press in response to exhibited work and the frequency of use and subsequent visibility generated by a website.
Measurable Outcome(s)
The new website reflects a lifetime of artistic practice and will be an invaluable tool in sharing and promoting my work. 2: The Bell Museum show created new, more interactive ways of showing work where living moths emerge from framed drawings in a salon style exhibition.
