I created Deleriyes Designs back in 1995 when the internet was in it's infancy, when I discovered that I enjoyed making ridiculous designs on a computer. Obviously, I wanted to find a way to use that skill to my advantage. I came up with a few designs that I planned on printing on shirts and selling them to hung-over people at Sunday morning flea markets (I called it my "What The Hell Happened To Me Last Night?" clothing line), but I was always too busy on Saturday night to even think of leaving the house Sunday morning, much less hanging out at a flea market selling shirts.

In the early years, I had no idea how to build a website, so I relied on making print ads for local businesses to get my designs seen, mostly making rave flyers and a few business brochures here and there. If you went to a rave in Halifax between 2001 and 2004, there's a pretty good chance you either found out about it by looking at one of my flyers, or saw one of my flyers there.

In 2004, I left the glamour and glitz of Haliwood behind, and made my way over to the other side of the continent, settling in Vancouver for a few years before moving back to Nova Scotia to marry the woman of my dreams.

While I was in Vancouver I taught myself how to build websites, after shopping around for someone to finally build me a site to display my artwork, and realizing that most web designers charge people way too much to build a basic site.

I realize that I'm not an expert at this web design thing yet, so if you're looking for a flashy website that looks like it cost thousands of dollars, you'll be better off paying someone else thousands of dollars to build it for you. If you're looking for a nice looking, functional website for your small business, organization, or anything else, then I'm your man, and I won't charge you an arm and a leg for it.

These days I'm trying to focus less on the web design and more on making designs to sell on T-Shirts, hats, mousepads, and other merchandise. I've set up stores on several websites like CafePress, Zazzle, Wordans, and others who specialize in printing and distribution. I realize it's the lazy man's way of getting designs out there, but I also realize that I am a lazy man, so I'm happy there are so many websites out there who cater to lazy men like me.

Click on the Store tab at the top of the page to browse through some of my designs, then pick the website you want to buy them from - each website has different merchandise, so you've got a lot to choose from.
