Michele Walker
Digital Images and Web Site Design

Although I occasionally work with traditional media including ceramics and stained glass, my primary media is digital. I create digital collages by scanning found objects and interesting textures and combine them with photos using Photoshop software.

My work often contains themes of uncertainty, mystery and confusion, and the contrast of darkness and light.

As the technology of visual communication has progressed from the static page to multi-media, I am even more excited by what can be accomplished. I am drawn to web design, because there is a democratizing energy to it. I still believe that in many ways, “information wants to be free.”

I was born in 1968 during a time when computers were a recent invention – the so-called “dawn of the information age.” I have always been fascinated by the intersection of technology and visual imagery.

Communicating via written symbols also intrigued me. I learned calligraphy at an early age and studied various alphabets, cuneiforms and hieroglyphs.

In 1993 I earned my Bachelor in Fine Arts degree from Ball State University. I specialized in Graphic Design because it allows me to earn a living by blending my love of technology, visual communication and creativity.
