About me

My name is Matt, I'm a freelance Illustrator / Graphic Designer. Whilst freelancing I have always tended to mix my own illustrations with graphic elements, and have worked on projects including design for web, branding, and promotion.

I graduated with a BA (Hons) Degree in Illustration after a life long interest. I have extensive experience using the Adobe suite, and would say I am an advanced user, I also am knowledgeable in both Dreamweaver and some basic Flash.

As well as freelance projects my most recent job was that of Graphic Designer and retail assistant in Instant Imprints, a global design company. This role utilizes many of my skills from Graphic Design through to print, and liaising with clients. I have also developed many new skills, specifically working with large format printers, plotters, and engravers.

I'm a very friendly, confident, and hardworking person with a strong passion for art and design. I am currently looking for a job that could make full use of my design skills and truly feel I could be an asset to your company because of my passion for this medium and my strong work ethic. I would love to hear more about the position you're looking to fill, and I would welcome the opportunity to tell you how my skills and ideas can benefit your team.

Thank you for your consideration, I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours Sincerely,

Matthew Johnston
