About me

I have twenty years experience in digital artworking and design for print and artwork management. Liaising with account directors and trafficking work for the artwork team, ensuring all deadlines are met and quality is maintained. Implementing and checking client alterations and checking printer proofs and estimating/costing of artwork time. Working across all areas of design for print including direct marketing, packaging, exhibition, brand identity, press adverts and sales promotion. I am vastly experienced in taking an art director or designer's visual, whether scamps or mac visuals, through to finished artwork, including any digital creation of high resolution images and illustrations. One of my greatest strengths is Photoshop. I have lectured on various courses and secondary schools throughout Edinburgh. I have been working consistently in photoshop retouching for many years and I have a very advanced knowledge of photoshop.
