This is a social networking website for over 100 members, where artists can build a small webpage with a featured project, supporting slideshow, links & video; add photos to their galleries, send/receive messages and “tweets” to other members, post in forums, view calls to artists, group exhibits and news.
Covid-19 canceled all physical exhibitions scheduled in 2020, so MGAL went virtual with a new exhibit, named Together Virtual Art Exhibit. Users could walk through the virtual exhibit with their mouse; or take the tour, which moved to each work through the exhibit for them.
A FlipBook of the Together Virtual Art Exhibit was also provided for novice users or others who might find 3D VR a dizzying experience.

- A historic home renovation blog that I developed and maintain in WordPress for my pre-1883 home in Coldwater, Mississippi.
- Sadie was the wife of the original owner, and the home was known locally as “Sadie’s Place”.
- My husband, Kenny, and I are the content creators for this blog that I developed in WordPress, at the end of 2017.
- The website has a subscriber membership of over 500 people and a Facebook group with over 200 members.
- Audience can engage, comment and subscribe to the website newsletter for emailed updates.
- Authored by the child of a 20th century renaissance man, who jumped a train at age fourteen during the Great Depression, to grab his piece of the American Dream in Memphis, Tennessee.
- The brand represents a way of life inherent before birth for self-determination without responsibility to any authority while resisting conformity to conventional norms and expectations.
- The website is an online magazine and video archive offering lifestyle influence and a repository of educational materials in various subjects of liberal arts.

- I am a visual artist, with a working studio since 2006.
- I have developed two websites with separate functions:
- Moosh Print Studio is my working art studio, named after my muse and little black & white Pekingese, Mooshi Moonpie.
- mooshprint.com is an e-commerce and blog website I developed and maintain in WordPress.
- mooshprint.com is where I sell my work and easily post updated information about my process or art exhibits where my work is sold.
- chelleellis.com is a website I designed in Adobe Photoshop and developed in Notepad in dHTML/javascript.
- chelleellis.com is my personal website I have been dragging from server to server for two decades. It’s easy to take down and set back up and I am simply sentimental for its retro style/functionality.
