My site is purposefully built utlizing the latest coding standards via HTML 5.
IE8 and IE7 display my site just fine. However since you are seeing this, it means you are one of the 10.9% that still use IE6 which was created in 2001. Yikes!

Please update IE or use a better browser ... either of these will do.

A bit more about me

My home base is Kansas City, MO. I'm a nationally recognized designer & artist. I've been designing/developing web sites and interactive media since 1997. I love what I do, but more importantly I'm a passionate visual communicator able to fluidly execute across several mediums. When I'm not staring at a screen, I'm getting my hands dirty in the paint studio and getting my work into multiple national shows. I possess the unique ability to be a creative spark, establish disparate connections, and enable the exchanging of ideas. I do this and more, all the while producing pristene content via expert execution.


notable clients

Hostess, AMC Entertainment, Garmin, Staples, Midwest Consulting Group, Sprint, and the United States Marine Corp.


notable achievements

I've had a website featured on CNN, won an Adbuster's Magazine Project Spotlight Award, and an Aster Award for advertising excellence!

A partial list of the industry standard software utlized on a daily basis. Of course I'm down with the entire Adobe Suite.

LOOKING FORWARD

There are always new tools and techniques to keep up with to be a competent developer & designer. A few that I am deeply examining.

I would love an opportunity to fully utilize the latest version of Adobe Device Central. Flat out, it has always been dicey developing mobile applications on OS X until this was released Java ME Platform SDK. Finally!

The best way to reach me is directly via email hello@robtapley.com as I'm very responsive. Feel free to also review my LinkdIn profile!


I would have a slew of other icons here, but I have decided to utilize facebook, flickr, rss, and other social media tools for my professional art self-promotion.
