Expect lots of new photos and perhaps some inspired new fine art. If I can get inspired enough I’ll be doing another gallery showing maybe as early as this winter. Update: You can view the photos HERE

In other news, I’ll soon be a dad. I’m extremely excited and fortunate to have the best wife in the universe. Ok, enough of that. Time to get back to work. I’m posting new tutorials this week. I apologize for the lack of them, I’ve been busy. Artists have to make money if they can.

The beautiful beach at Tulum. I could sit here all day. 85 degree ocean water wasn’t bad either. This was the most stunning beach I’ve seen.

I have many more images and will post them over the next couple days.

I’m hoping to visit Isla Mujeres and I’m sure will take a trip to Chichen Itza among other cultural locations. My camera trigger finger is getting REALLY itchy! I’ll be posting photos from Cancun nightly from Friday through Sunday so check back here this weekend if you’re interested in seeing the images.

Buenas noches,
Tyler

My old site was just that- old. The last thing I wanted to do was add anything new to an old site that didn’t reflect all the things I’d learned about web design and usability. The two years I worked as Creative Director at one of the largest Internet marketing agencies taught me more than any other job I’ve had in the creative field. A lot of this had to do with the diversity of clients and projects I worked on as well as how inspiring it was to work with a group of highly skilled individuals. I learned something new every day. These lessons will be with me forever and I look forward to the next chapter in my life; one that will be filled with a more personal direction as I work for myself. I’m looking forward to sharing what I learn and I’ll do my best to add more tutorials for art, design and photography each month. Anything I add is just one way of doing things. Almost everything in this world can be done in more than one way, and it’s exciting to discover these methods on your own. I just hope it’s inspiring in some way. Thanks for visiting. Tyler
