About me
As a highly creative and innovative retoucher and graphic designer with a career and body of work spanning pver 30 years, I have worked professionally on an expansive array of projects in various aspects of the global print and design industry, and in a variety of roles, including; Creative Designer, Graphic Designer, Creative Retoucher, Art Director, Team Leader, Production Manager, Artworker, Typesetter and Print Finisher.
Most notably, I spent around half of my career working alongside legendary designer Storm Thorgerson and StormStudios in the music industry, clients included; Pink Floyd, Muse and Biffy Clyro. And of late, Brown-Forman for Jack Daniel's. Possessing the ability to produce complex and interesting artwork from concept to completion, I am very much an all-rounder.
Being incredibly motivated and feeling passionately about print, design, illustration, movies, books and music, I am always looking forward to my next big and exciting, creative adventure.
For me it is not just work, it's a lifestyle.
