Winter Quarter is Over!

Today was my last final and boy does it feel good to be done with this quarter.  My last final consisted of a open house portfolio presentation.  It was a great opportunity to finally present my work that I have been working on so hard these past two years.  We were pulled out for a mock interview.  I was very nervous but as soon as I got in the room I became confident.  As a designer you have to be confident in your work and be able to sell your work.  After the interview they told be polity that it is ok to leave a moment of silence.  For those of you who know me imagine that me talking to much... no way!!

I now am so relieved that this quarter is over and I get a break! Well if you call a break designing a photo book, designing graduation invitations, continuing to work on my website, taking baseball pictures, meeting with a company about possibly doing their website, and continuing my job at Nature's Green. Sounds like a wonderful break for me! :)

I hope that everyone has a St. Patties day and a great weekend!!!

Busy Busy

This quarter has been very stressful this quarter.  This is finals week, for a designer that means lots of projects due.  I have completed all of them! (finally!!)  I am going to have to kick my feet up and rest to prepare me for next quarter.  I am going to be continuing working at Nature's Green as a designer/ receptionist and I am also picking up some volunteer hours at the Arts Place in St. Mary's.  I am very excited I always enjoy taking on new challenges!

WEBSITE IS UP!!

Go check out www.oneofakinddesignsbymaria.com.  My website is up and running I will continue updating it as my portfolio builds!! Enjoy :)

Upcoming Website!

I am currently working on my personal website.  Designing it has taken a lot of time but I think that it is going to be great when I am finished.  It is going to include some of my photography and a lot of my design work including Nature's Green Nursery's work that I have done for them!

New Work

This week I started my new position at Nature's Green Nursery as Web Designer/ Receptionist.  I am very excited to be involved in this company because this past fall I did some freelance work for them.  I rebranded their entire company, beginning with a logo change.  It is exciting to start working with the company because this is my first job designing a web site!! Very exciting!
