PERSPECTIVES…

Welcome to the results of tenacity… Studio B was not a bankrolled business, instead pieced together over time with the loving support of countless, loyal clients who supported my vision … none more than the loving support of my Kiwi named Cathy.

Should you add your name to my email list - holding your breath between my “blasts” is not advised. Confession: Look at the dates between posts - that’s about how often I send email. True to my services, however, it’s nearly always fresh content. Something I highly recommend for your sites!.. (be it by way of my creation or your phone…)
