Welcome to my home page. I'm a graphic designer, author, and journalist. The Black Point Group/Design page is being renovated and a new link will be added as soon as the site is complete. (I know I have been saying this for over a year, but it is coming soon!)

Available now for overnight delivery, CorelDRAW Studio Techniques, published by Osborne. I co-authored this book with Dave Huss, the self-acknowledged guru of Corel PHOTO-PAINT. The book features 17 full-color chapters of complete CorelDRAW and PHOTO-PAINT projects with an amusing Back-2-Back section where Huss and I reproduce Gold and Chrome, Stained Glass, Soft Shadows, and more, in our respective applications while taking affectionate pot shots at one another.
