the world of springs

Who am I?

mebw08dir.jpgI've been traveling around IRC under various pseudonyms since 1998, but I've been 'springs' now for about 5 years or so. Springs is actually a shortened version of my original nick springsrain - so if someone refers to me as 'rainy' then you know why :-)

Outside of IRC I am a visual artist and part-time freelance web designer; which keep me pretty busy. If I'm not around I working on a painting or a web page. I also have several mini projects I work on, including making Google Gadgets and learning about Linux. Click on the links to learn more:

I also have a BA in Anthropology; which I mention because people seem to find this very out-of-the ordinary :?:
