About me
As an established freelance artist with over five years experience, I can offer a variety of services within the main professional graphic software packages. Page layout
for brochures, mailers, advertisements and corporate projects with QuarkXpress. A high standard of retouching and visualisation in photoshop and an extremely high standard
of packaging in Adobe Illustrator and visuals which may incorporate all of these packages. I also have experience with Aldus freehand. All of the companies who have
employed me as a freelance artist have an extensive base of international clients.
With a very proactive and technical outlook towards work I am also a very quick
learner with new software packages. Capable of working closely with designers to
achieve the best results. All artwork produced is to the highest of standards and
warrants no further or very little work from a pre-press department.
