Wishing for that Analog Feeling on a Graphics Tablet
First let me just say that I absolutely love using my graphics tablet for work and play. Using the digital pen instead of a mouse is absolutely ideal for the type of work that I do and because of my background in art it’s a "natural" fit. I have it mapped so that there is a one-to-one relationship between where I point the pen on the graphics tablet and where my cursor is on the screen. It is superior to the frustrating scrubbing that is so common with using a mouse.
Cynthia Nixon Art
Cynthia Nixon is a contemporary American artist whose mixed-media work combines figurative painting, gold leaf and embroidery. She was looking for an easy-to-use Web site that focused on her work and allowed individuals to explore her mixed media work and find out more about her. Cynthia and I worked together to develop the information architecture of the site, navigational elements that helps a user locate themselves within the site, and it’s trim layout. The site is developed with straight forward XHTML and CSS.
