Omar Marcos - Change Log

CHANGE LOG

Since this is basically intended to be a portfolio website that, upon completion, likely won't be updated daily, I've decided against implementing an RSS feed for the artistic sections of my site (…with the exception of the News page). Instead, I've chosen to include a change log where you can keep track of any major changes I make. Yes, I realize these are typically reserved for app & software development, but it's the first title that came to mind. And ideally I should have initiated this in the Summer of 2022 when I began this version of my website, but better late than never!

  • TIME DILATION & SANTA CLAUSE

    December 21, 2023
    Speaking of time warps, allow me to close out the year with this final S.T.E.A.M. post.
    Everyone have a great holidays & a safe New Year!

  • FASHION HISTORY

    December 8, 2023
    We've already entered the Winter holidays-time warp where there never seems to be enough time to get everything done. Consequently, I'm posting an even lighter update than the previous one and only introducing a new illustration section titled Fashion History.

    (Note: For those of you familiar with my other websites, you've already noticed this artwork is basically just mirrored content from there. But I figured I might as well include it here in my official illustration portfolio, even though such duplicate content adds more megabytes to the sum total of internet bandwidth!)

  • S.T.E.A.M. FOR THE HOLIDAYS

    November 22, 2023
    A relatively light update before Thanksgiving: I've added two new posts on the S.T.E.A.M. page. And you'll notice I've also added tags to the main S.T.E.A.M. page to make it easier to find the articles highlighting specific concepts. Enjoy!

  • A.I. ARTICLE UPDATE

    November 10, 2023
    As eager as I am to add more art and S.T.E.A.M. posts on here, I've dedicated the latest update to a few edits and a new Addendum Section in the Artificial Intelligence & Society article. (Remember, new text is highlighted in purple with a notation of the date added.) With the increasing development of AI technology, I thought it best to address some of the recent relevant issues. (But even so, I was only able to complete half of what I had intended to for the article updates…)
    And you'll also note that I've added Reading Time estimates for most of the Artist Resources articles, roughly based on a silent reading time of 283 words per minute. Everyone's strapped for time nowadays, so hopefully that can provide a guide for your planned reading!

  • MORE S.T.E.A.M.

    October 17, 2023
    I had forgotten how much I enjoyed diving into math & science concepts, and I really could spend a majority of my time exploring the same. And apparently that's what I've been doing, because the only update for now is a revamped S.T.E.A.M. page!

  • NEW SECTION AND FINISHED SECTIONS

    September 16, 2023
    After a number of detours and delays, I've added a new section I've been wanting to complete for a few months now. The S.T.E.A.M. page in the Xtras section is a blending of math, science, technology, and the arts.
    Of course, I also have a few more additions to my second AI article, but that'll have to wait till the next go round.
    And I've finally finished the Caricatures section and the Music Composition page.
    "Finished". There's something quite uplifting about being able to use that word here. Of course, it's a relative term for an artist's portfolio, as hopefully creatives are always adding new work to their repertoire. And almost immediately I can think of more work I could add to those two completed sections. But let's leave it there for now, shall we? I'd really like to finish this website before the turn of the next century!

  • CULINARY ARTS UPDATES

    August 29, 2023
    World news & current events are filled with stories of heartbreaking loss and devastation at the moment. Among other things, the world really could use some uplifting art right now. So while I'm finishing up some of the other sections, I've posted some updates on the Culinary Arts page for now. Enjoy!

  • MORE UPDATES!

    July 07, 2023
    Hello again! I realize I haven't posted updates here lately, but I bit off more than I could chew again and fell short of completing a few sections. So you'll have to excuse my Pac-Man tendencies in this regard.
    Also, as I move closer to actually completing this site (…because it's taken way too long already, right?!), the update schedule won't always be as consistent or as frequent as it has been, simply because I'd rather present more finished sections as opposed to some of the piecemeal updates I've been providing. In the meantime, I've refined the Artist Resources page and you can also view the updates on the Graphic Design section, as well as the completed & spruced up the Artificial Intelligence & Society article.
    Thanks for understanding!

  • ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE & SOCIETY

    June 09, 2023
    As promised, I've posted my second article dealing with AI: Artificial Intelligence & Society. While a few sections are still a work in progress, I'll simply add to it in the next rounds. Be sure to check it out!

  • DESIGN PORTFOLIO ADDITIONS

    May 09, 2023
    Slowly but surely I'm finally starting to round out my Graphic Design Portfolio. First up are a few new web design additions. (And from now on, unless there's a major modification there, I'll just go ahead & simply add the new work, instead of announcing them in this change log. That saves me a few seconds of typing!)

  • PORTFOLIO WEBSITES & AI

    April 21, 2023
    Part of my intent here is to support artists and look out for their interests. As such, I've started to add updated footnotes regarding Artificial Intelligence use & policies in the Portfolio Websites page found under Artist Resources.

  • NEW PAGES

    March 14, 2023
    More updates! I've added two new pages to the site: first, the Character Design page in the Illustration section, and also the Art Photography page under the Fine Art heading.

  • CULINARY ADDITIONS

    February 24, 2023
    Apparently I bit off more than I could chew this time around, so as a result I ended up not completing what I had planned. However, (and in keeping with the previous food metaphor) I've added a few more culinary additions to the Xtras page! (…And even this is partially unfinished. Story of my life.)

  • ANIMATED TEXT CHANGES

    January 20, 2023
    In order to provide increased transparency, I've introduced a new visual marker that pinpoints exactly where I've made changes in certain important text sections. From now on, whenever I make substantial revisions to my Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, or certain Shop Talk articles under the Artist Resources section, you can see recently added new text briefly highlighted in orange. (Scroll down quickly in longer sections to get a complete overview of the text changes.) And don't worry, the bright orange color eventualy fades away, so you can read all the text in its normal color!
