January 2020 Free Wallpaper Download
First order of business for the year is this fresh wallpaper for January 2020, available free to download. I’ve included options for desktop, tablet and smartphone devices. If you can’t find the option for you, contact me and we’ll see what we can do. By the way, the artwork is a modern floral surface pattern design I created a few weeks ago.
Studio Log 02 – Reconfiguring My Website Storage & Digital Ocean Droplet
Two hours into this entire process and I think I’ve reached my limit with the speed of making edits in the blog post and waiting for it to save. So I’ve decided I might actually resize the droplet again but add another vCPU – however, this does mean I will probably wait around 15 minutes for this process to complete but that seems worth it for my sanity. Waiting 5 minutes to process each click is driving me mad.

What I also want to do is also release the versions of these leaves that I have been working on in Adobe Illustrator.
