01/02/12 - Under Construction! I'm mid-revamp at the minute so sorry if some things don't work or look a bit wonky

About danconnolly.co.uk

Part-blog, part-portfolio is the short answer. By day I work as a web designer at a technology firm based at the University of Warwick, by night I freelance as a web and graphic designer, write comics and fairy tales, draw pictures, and this is where I post the things I've done along with my favourite bits of the web. The best way to find out what it’s all about is to have a look around or try the About page

If you’re interested in hiring me for anything I’m always on the lookout for interesting new projects so please get in touch.

About Dan Connolly

I hate writing these things! To the point where I asked some of my friends to write it for me (you can see their responses on the About page in case you'd like an second opinion).

In short I’m a a geek (but that’s cool these days, right?). I’ve been building websites for about 14 years (it's been my job for the last seven) and working as as graphic designer for about nine.

One of my aims for 2012 is to get back into drawing on a regular basis. A book of my illustrations won a competition last Summer which was encouraging (it was about time I had something to replace my Year 8 Certificate for Achievement in Expressive Arts). The plan is to produce semi-regular comics or illustrations as well as write/adapt/illustrate some fairy tales for incoming babies amongst friends and family. Any and all encouragement appreciated!

If you really want to know a bit more about me (by my own hand and others') head over to the about page.

About time I sorted this lot out and got back on the horse. I’ve been tinkering with a new design on and off for months now so I figured I should just publish what’s here and be done with. The categories need sorting out as do a few other things (some of the image assets [...]
