Creativity runs thick and deep in my family. My father was an artist, my mother a musician. I still clearly remember the day my father carefully explained to me that a shadow has a COLOUR. I grew up alongside visual vibrancy – so it was just natural to step into a livelihood built on design (after a long and boring stint in Corporate, just not my thing).

When I started out, I called my little business ‘Webweaver Webdesign‘, because building a website is remarkably similar to weaving a tapestry. The underside (what we designers might call the ‘back-end’) is full of technical threads and ends and sometimes patches – but the front, the part that YOU see, is intended to be a feast for the eyes.

As my 50th birthday approached, however, I started to rethink WHY and HOW I design and I began to wonder whether ‘Webweaver’ really still suited that aim. When Marvel announced that Webweaver was the name of their latest character, well, no offence to the Marvel fans – but I’m not a comic outfit. Webdesign is serious business here. Designing websites as Anzelle seemed a good way to mark a turn for me, a new season of confidence and skill that I have built up over the years. I want my name to stand for quality design and excellence.

If you’d like to see more of my work (the portfolio page here is a very small selection) or want to talk digital design, get in touch. I’m based in Durbanville, South Africa but have helped clients in all parts of the world build a beautiful online presence.
