I have enjoyed art most of my life, and want to get better at it. I have worked places where art didn't really fit in, so "EdwardsOtherSide" is a reference to how this is a side of my life I haven't shared with a lot of people. I live in Vienna Virginia, USA.

Design is weird. You're trying carry on polite conversation and WHAM! You're comparing the VW Bug, the Sokolovsky .45 pistol, and the Le Corbusier lounge chair. Next thing you know, bad kerning is EVERYWHERE.
