ABOUT
I have been a professional Graphic Designer for over 17 years and have worked in a number of agencies and publishers across the North East.
I have a real passion for Photoshop as it allows me to create something unique and visually striking from even the most mundane source materials.
I am currently working as a Senior Graphic Designer at Offstone Publishing where my responsibilities include the design and production of a number of printed publications, as well as a wide range of print and digital marketing clients. Everything from the creation of the initial concept, the execution of the idea, through to the presentation to the client.
WHAT I DO
Branding
Branding is so much more than just a clever logo mark, it’s your companies best chance at a first impression. Meaning, it not only has to look the part, but act it. Thats why I like to work closely with my clients to really dig deep in to not only what they do but who they are.
Your brand should tell a story, the logo design is simply the first chapter.
In Print & Online Creative Design
Whether it’s working with a brand I have created or an existing one, I pride myself on being able to provide creative solutions to any print or digital problem.
I have had the good fortune to work in both predominately web lead, and publishing agencies which has allowed me to gain a wealth of experience in both disciplines.
From the design of a single sided business card to full scale exhibitions and simple MailChimp emailers to full eCommerce websites, I’ve turned my hand to them all.
Prototyping
When it comes to website design, long gone are the days where a flat JPEG proof would cut the mustard. With functionality ever changing it’s more important than ever to show your clients exactly how you envisage their new site working for them.
Prototyping allows the client to see their project work in real time, allowing them to make any functionality changes quickly and easily, ensuring everything is perfect before moving on to the build stage.
Image Manipulation // Digital Art
It’s said that an image speaks a thousand words. However, that exact shot isn’t always available, and in some cases, doesn’t even exist. This is what sparked my love for image manipulation and digital art. It gives us the ability to create the extraordinary from the often very ordinary, and at times, something from nothing.
I have worked on a number of both client and personal projects where the imagery has not only helped, but brought the concept to life.
