Artist turned web developer.
That's exactly what happened a couple of years ago. A transformation that didn't happen overnight, but a process that gradually evolved over the years. The trigger that set it all in motion was the declining level of satisfaction I was experiencing for some years in making art.
Different from any artistic crisis I experienced over the years something was undermining the very foundation of making art and being an artist.Wrestling with the bare essence of oneself.The outcome of the fight would soon be evident. No winner, no loser but a clear insight. I decided to make a U-turn and retrain myself to become a so called self-taught web developer.Coming from a artistic background, teaching yourself to code without any prior knowledge, without a mentor is a time consuming enterprise with a relatively steep learning curve, depending on your background ofcourse.But the goal I set myself was clear, become a so called self-taught web developer.
