Hi! My name is Matt Wagner!

The design of this website shows how I am a calm and laid back person through my Zen garden theme and use of neutral colors.

I created the music you hear on this page with an online tool http://ww

w.aviary.com/ Audio Editor. The visual design of this webpage needed to be enhanced with music so I sequenced the music to evoke a feeling of tranquility and serinity.

I largely owe who I am as a person to my friends and family. Although my family can be pretty crazy they are still great and help me when I need them. Similarly, my friends provide me with a lot of support when I need them and are always fun to be around.

 

At Freestyle, I am becoming a new person by learning how to combine artistic and technical skills to help convey thoughts and ideas. I used my Self-Portrait Diptych to depict my theme: The best things don't come easy. My Self-Portrait Illustration show two different sides of my personality: the stress-free side of me and the side of me that likes to put things off. On my podcast page, you can find a short podcast I put together that has 10 important lessons I have learned throughout my life. On my Essay page, you can find an essay I wrote in English class about an aspect of myself that I think is pretty cool.

In the first quarter of my Junior year, I have learned so much about the construction of websites, the creation of illustrations and photos, and so much more. I didn't know much when I started in August, but now I know the basics of Garageband, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Dreamweaver. I know I will be able to utilize these skills in my future, not only at Freestyle, but also out in the work world.

Finally, I am very proud of this Self-Portrait Website because I put a lot of time and work into its construction and because I think it does a good job of representing me as a person.

 

I hope you enjoy my website!
