About me
My name is Tia Stoneman and I have recently graduated with a
qualification in BA (hons) Illustration, I have some industry
experience in both the creative and retail sector and I am currently
looking for a full- time position as an Illustrator or something
similar within a company. As an illustrator I enjoy a challenge and
love the new and unusual, my work is fairly traditional as I work
predominantly by hand using paints, inks, clay and collage. I have
gained new skills through my degree such as working on Adobe Photoshop,
Adobe Illustrator and Art rage, other skills include pyro-engraving,
Calligraphy, printmaking, photography and typography. My artistic style
is incredibly versatile and can quickly adapt to any brief, this I feel
is clearly demonstrated throughout my portfolio work.As a person I feel
I am very friendly, enthusiastic, hardworking, funny and approachable.
I work well both individually and as part of a team, I have an
excellent eye for detail and composition and excellent organizational
skills. I also consider myself to be a quick learner who of which works
well under pressure and have good written and oral skills.
