New Website, Who Dis?

Ok, corny title aside, there have been alot of changes happening on the site.

First you may have noticed that there is a new URL that you can use. MichaelWeaverArt.com is now the official home of all work created by yours truly. I wanted to do this URL change for a bit but kept putting it off for some time. MSWeaverFibers.com was great when I first started this site but I have grown so much more as an artist and now a designer as well. I wanted something that really encapsulated that as a whole.

New logo. I now have an official logo represent myself as an artist and a designer. Beyond the basics of a monogram style logo I wanted to bring in some elements that represent myself and who I am as a creative. The main focus is the central scissors icon. Depending on how you know me and my work this can be interpreted two ways. The first way as a designer. the scissors and dotted are used in alot of paper craft as a “cut here” indication and give off the hand made approach I like to take with all of my work. As an artist, you can also take that dotted line and interpret it as a running stitch which is quite common in embroidery, which is a key feature in all of my paintings. With those to ideologies together, they are both encapsulated under this new brand. This mark will also be appearing as my signature/brand (meaning actual wood brand) on the back of all of my pieces going forward (just got the final art of the brand and I’ll be getting it within the next few weeks).

New section. You may have noticed that on my Work page I now have sections for my Fine Art and Design. each of these will take you to the subsequent libraries where you can find my work and any information on purchasing those pieces (no official store is set up just yet, but that is in the works for the future).

So yeah, that’s it for this entry. I hope to see more of you hear and drop a comment here or on my Facebook page letting me know that you saw it and say hello.
