I became an artist the moment I could pick up a crayon and draw a line. Every line a thought. Every thing I saw was up for review. In my own childhood way , I decided that drawing is an advanced connection to all things in mind. By the second grade I had taught myself 3 point perspective and shading. By the fourth grade two of my paintings had been sent around the world to be viewed by art students in every level of education including some universities and I was winning art competitions. This continued through most of my years in school including college. How ever, art should be my secondary focus of study. I have learned that my creativeness comes from within and that what I need is not to learn more about art but to invent/use practial applications , including art , to thrive in a market place. Yet , learning programs like photoshop , illustrator , indesign , gimp , flash , dreamweaver (yuck) , fontforge and any other progam is super easy. I breezed through them in college. Now I don't get what makes learning software so expensive. Its just stupid to spend that much money on it when all that does is set one up to buy more software. Its a big scam.

My main focus is UI Design. I am progressive in my studies, taking it seriously and pushing my limits 24/7. I literally will wake up from a dream about a system and implement the solutions. eg. I figured out how to scale vector images to fit in a given space online in a dream about ratio logic and triganometry (cos , sin ...) to type on a curved path with javascript. lol.. Its beeing implemented here:

I am "Out of the box!!" ready to plan/create/implement code frameworks , CMS , UI , graphics and animations. :)
P.S.
My system:
"Seagate 7200" (awesome drive) dual booting windows (YUCK bleh grrr! Its just for adobe programs that I am super good with and to browser test in IE (double YUCK)) next to "Ubuntu" (love debain) 12.04 LTS (kind of long term...) with switchable interfaces (xubuntu , ubuntu server , lubuntu and of course Unity) on 6.3 gigs ddr2 ram , ati graphics and quad amd (most def).
My favorite editor is "Geany (linux)" and I do most of my everything all day on linux with 45 min periods when I need something like illustrator on windows but I am figuring out some vector image solutions that don't involve winblows.
Code I write:
php4-5, javascript,jQuery(ninja),css1-3
