This Visual Designer's First Post!

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

Hey Steem! My name's, Mark.

I am a visual designer and artist with over 15 years of experience with Adobe Photoshop.
I love sharing my story of being an average joe who discovered that he can indeed create cool work by simply putting in the effort and finding excuses to continually create.

I intend to fill this space with tutorials, opinions on art and of course samples of my work and processes.
In doing so, I hope to inspire people who are on the fence with art, discouraged or simply unmotivated enough to push through the failures. I enjoy teaching people how to use software and improve their artwork and I have found that in helping others I learn a lot myself.

Currently, you can access my work most easily via my instagram: www.instagram.com/scuffedpixels

I grew weary of the censorship, convoluted practices and a whole lot of the "same" on the popular social media platforms. Then I heard of Steem. I'm looking for a breath of fresh air and I'm hoping to find that here.

Just a little about myself, I love my little family, greyhounds, motorsports, technology and of course art & design. A good cup of coffee coupled with some epic music is always good for getting the creativity flowing. So I'm looking forward to meeting like minded folks and contributing to what looks like an awesome community!

Hey Mark! I'm new also, looking around at some introduction posts. I like the paper with the Steemit date.

Haha thanks! Not a fan of bot accounts, so figured I'd try and show that I'm not one...though having some robot skills wouldn't bother me much. ;)
