Mike Cotter: April 2014
http://mikecotter.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
April 21, 2014. Working on a New Website. For the past several months I have been working on building a website from scratch. I started using Dreamweaver and teaching myself some basic HTML and JavaScript. For more advanced code, I've been searching the internet for script to copy and paste into Dreamweaver. While searching, I came across a few websites with resources to help me with coding. I feel the need to give credit to one website in particular, Dynamic Drive. April 16, 2014.

Mike Cotter: Photographing Artwork
http://mikecotter.blogspot.com/2014/02/photographing-artwork.html
February 7, 2014. As an artist, one of the toughest jobs can be getting the right photograph of your artwork. I have spent countless hours trying to learn how to take pictures of art.
