W&D: Chapel Hill Starry Night

Hope you're all having a wonderful Thanksgiving. Figured I would do a quick update.
A design for the local customers of the Wine and Design I work at. The Starry Night variation paintings are very popular. I designed one to have the main places for Chapel Hill.

ImageCSS


I've been a bit distracted from the project I mentioned in my Halloween post (of making a special set of blogs); this brought me to my current redoing of my website, which is still a work in progress. Currently focusing on updating layout, settings, coding, and such. Later, I'll actually update the content. I will admit I only know moderate amount when it comes to coding, especially when it comes to the changes of html 5 and css. It is nice to find a reference site for coding and I stumbled upon such a site.

Image CSS is a simple, quick, and easy to understand of the code for images. It is simple, yet gives details as needed with various functions of the code. I highly recommend it if you don't know css that well or need a quick refresher on it.

Hope it'll be useful. PS. Image to left is a random photograph I've taken playing with Macro setting.

Wine and Design Children Painting: Little Red Cape

Big Wolf and Little Red Cape Paintings

This is to be a cute parent and child painting. I wanted to design to have the option for one to be theme for boy and girl painting, so it's flexible. I use the idea of Little Red Riding Hood (or Little Red Cape) for it has something to interest for girls by little red and boys being the wolf. It is a fun painting and easy to customize the design.

If interested in Wine and Design, their website is online with all their locations and schedules for classes. I teach at the Chapel Hill location. There are similar companies throughout the United States such as Painting with a Twist.
