In May this year I ran into the former curator of the Elders / Elders-GM / Elders IXL / Foster’s Art Collection which Foster’s sold in 2005. As a result, I will begin work later this year on developing a DVD to show most of the paintings and other information about the collection - which was started by Sir Norman Giles in the 1950’s.

In the meantime you can click on the link below:

This is a scene I created on 2008 on my PC in a 3D modelling program. The main use of the 3D program for me is to create titles (both animated and still) and backgrounds for videos.

The above was my previous Home Page for many years. The layout was controlled by Dreamweaver AP tags (Absolute Positioning) which are now frowned upon as old fashioned. At least they worked

Initially I used an AP tag on this page to position the Welcome section on the left of this sidebar, but it's now positioned correctly using CSS.

If you click on the images on this page (except the Streeton painting in the left sidebar) it will link to a larger image.

Welcome

Welcome to my Web site which I've created in Dreamweaver CS4.

I plan to revise this home page every time I make any changes to the web site so that you don't have to waste your time looking at every page just to see if it has changed recently.

However, this page is not going to be an archival record of changes over a period of weeks or months. It's going to be a current record.

Comment

I grew up in a different generation to those of young people today, so I've never been a fan of Michael Jackson or his music.

Nevertheless I paid a tribute to him by adding some of his songs, and YouTube videos of him performing to my web site. As time moves on, I'm now gradually removing them.

A Message from JTH

This page and many others in this web site have an embedded music file in WMA format. You will need to have the Windows Media Player plugin in your browser. You will probably have this if you have a PC. If you're on a Mac, you can download a plugin for Safari from HERE.

If anyone who doesn't know me visits this site and wants to contact me, click on the 3rd link in the navigation bar to see my old web site and check the URL. Replace ".customer." with the user @ sign to send me a message.

Today I typed a new CSS rule for this page and my other pages in the code editor in Dreamweaver, which has resulted in a first letter display that can't be done any other way in Dreamweaver.

The soundtrack to the Art Collection has been changed again; in fact, twice today.

Apart from a few minor changes, there is nothing new today.

I'm working on a major change to the Art Collection slideshow page. I recommend you leave it alone until I tell you it's ready.

I'll let you know.
