Self taught

It's back to teaching myself more. I got an A in both Spanish and Dreamweaver in College but not because I knew the material only because I insist on getting the highest grade possible when I'm paying for the class. The short comings for these classes were not my own and possible not those of the instructors either. In
Spanish my teacher was originally from Egypt he spoke and had lived in Spain; however with an Arabic accent translating yet a second language (Spanish) into yet a third language English, a lot was lost in the translation, such as proper pronunciations. I learned to read basic Spanish but speaking and understand are all but lost to me. My Web design class went in a similar fashion but not due to a language barrier, the instructor was new to teaching Dreamweaver and not yet prepared. On my own I can understand some of the html code and I have made a number of sites mostly simple, but lacking in a in-depth knowledge of CSS the key component to page set up and type control, so I search for books to explain CSS and I still found myself lost. Until I started following the Adobe Classroom in a book on Dreamweaver I can't say I have a complete understanding of it all yet but I've gotten to the 7th Chapter now and I don't think I'll be confusing myself on my next site at all I used to change on tag then the whole sites text changed I'd try separating them and more and it just kept me going in circles. I would like a visual representation like a chart to better understand it all but for the time being I understand that you only change one or two elements per a class and exclude tags that control other elements it's all very confusing to explain for now. Today's duties for myself are to complete the book and master the program. I taught myself to sew, I can learn anything so long as I have a true desire to study read watch teaching videos and try. I believe everyone else can learn anything they want as well.

It's been so long

Ok it's been a while since I wrote, but as always I've been trying new art forms and completing a few quilts. This is a quilt I made for V-day just something more to add to the home for the holiday. It's about a yard square and I made the pattern myself of course. It's quite simple to make your own patterns just draw a shape like a heart then make as many sides flat as possible with out loosing the whole idea of the heart shape, for the sides I did strip piecing to make it quick.
As for my new art I've been doing or trying to do henna tattooing. I haven't yet mastered it but everything takes practice.
