- About Me:
- gee...ok i'm 19...i've been designing since i was 15ish... got my first "design job" at 16-someone just randomly told me to do the layout of their newspaper, didnt even have to look for a job..the job found me...after that did a few jobs here and there... than in january i got offered my DREAM JOB.. i design for our church...we have 2 churches, 1 in polokwane, the other in pretoria.., its alot of work but i really enjoy it, i've loved designing for years, but seeing peoples lives changed through some of my work, ah thats priceless,.....so yeah i love designing...if it could be bottled it would be my drug... i'm starting a t-shirt line with crazy stuff i like to say on...im living my dream... and i'm only 19!! i am truly blessed...
designers that inspire me:
Paul Rand-A LEGEND.. if you dont know who he is... i dont think you're a REAL DESIGNER...
Alex Evans...
Glen Steward...
(Paul Rand Quotes)
Design is so simple, that's why it is so complicated.”
“Design is everything. Everything!”
“Providing, meaning to a mass of unrelated needs, ideas, words and pictures - it is the designer's job to select and fit this material together and make it interesting.”
Simplicity is not the goal. It is the by-product of a good idea and modest expectations.
Without aesthetic, design is either the humdrum repetition of familiar cliches or a wild scramble for novelty. Without the aesthetic, the computer is but a mindless speed machine, producing effects without substance. Form without relevant content, or content without meaningful form.

fav song at the moment!
Closed off from love
I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough
And it was all in vain
Time starts to pass
Before you know it you're frozen
But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melts into the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm going crazy
But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I
Keep b… Continue

KEEPING ME ALIVE
It's like I never lived
Before my life with you
So much was missing here
I never even knew
I still picture the place we were
When I fell into your world
My heart is in you
Where you go you carry me
I bleed
If you bleed
Your heart beats
Inside of me
You're keeping me alive
I don't know why feel this way
But something's right
You're like the morning air
Before the light arrives
No more lonely and
No more night
No more secrets to hide
I'll hold you near
Together, we'll never die
Your love is k… Continue
