I subsequently left the company with the goal of continuing development work in the fuel industry. I purchased domains with a fuel and cardlock focus. I developed card processing management applications and a wholesale fuel quoting system. COVID and other business opportunities took me further away from the industry and while I continue to work with fuel companies in a service capacity, I'm unlikely to roll out fuel industry related products. The time has come, therefore, to liquidate remaining fuel industry assets. 

I've got the following domains available for sale. I'm open to offers on all but one. You can complete individual transations on the landing page for each.

Starting in 2020, I put a lot more effort into my painting, something that I'd done on and off for 20 some odd years. The real difference was my decision to work this into my professional life. Since then, smtart.com and its related retail presence has been an additional revenue stream of the corporation. In addition to selling original paintings, smtart.com sells various painting prints, as well as a line of photography prints

Even though I have become a highly competent programmer and database developer, it all started with design. I had been working with Silicon Valley icons back in the 1990's when a client learned I also knew web design. He suggested that might be a lucrative avenue for me in addition to the user interface design I was known for. It set me down a path that moved me further away from my creative pursuits. While I would still take on design jobs over the years, the development work was primarily what kept the lights on.

Despite the obvious benefits of doing the programming work, it takes a toll on my overall well-being. Further, I know I'm happiest when I'm working on more creative pursuits. To that end, I decided it was time to return to my roots and change the company focus to design services. Since smtart.com has been a big factor in helping me to visualize new directions for the company, it made sense that the company would leverage that brand with a new name, SMT Creative Inc.

We will still offer web design and development, but will limit the more advanced application development jobs. We offer graphic design services for both digital and print delivery, and of course, will extend the current marketing of smtart.com. I'm looking forward to this next chapter in the company's evolution.
