About me
Hello. Who are you
I'm George (short for Georgina) and I'm a graphic designer, creative artworker and photoshopper. I've got over 24 years' experience working full time and freelance at brilliant brands like Eurostar, Microsoft, IKEA, National Maritime Museum and many more. I am available and seeking new freelance, creative artworking work.
What floats your boat, design-wise
I've always loved typography. I've got a priceless collection of wooden type, old signs and vintage advertising all around my home. That and the iconic film title typography on old posters, title sequences, created by geniuses like Saul Bass and Bill Gold. That's what keeps me inspired.
What are your favourite kinds of jobs
Give me a big, chunky, fiddly typesetting job and I'm in my element! I love those projects that other designers hate, and I'm good at them. At Eurostar they'd even wait for me to get back from a holiday to do things like big brochures, guidelines and timetables that need consistency and precision.
I also enjoy a good Photoshop job. Hiding what shouldn't be there, adding what should, making it all completely seamless...love it.
