Experience
I spent my formative years in England. After graduating from Hornsey College of Art in London with a degree in art and design, I lived and worked as an illustrator in Mexico and Hawaii before settling in the San Francisco Bay Area, working as a freelance illustrator for major advertising agencies.
For over ten years I have reconnected with graphic design working on a wide range of projects. My skills and experience as an illustrator and photographer provide a strong visual sensibility and many years of painting provide flexibility and creative problem solving.

FAQs
How can I keep my design costs low?
Before beginning a job, it's my resposibility as a designer to discuss with you ways to be organized and clear about what you want. For instance, final text that has been reviewed by an editor or planned ahead web site navigation will eliminate multiple changes and help keep costs down.
Which logo file should I send?
FOR PRINT
Always send the "Illustrator" .ai or vector art file. (You might find it as an .eps file.) This will give the best reproduction possible. If you don't have this file request it from the designer of your logo or the printer you have been using.
FOR WEB
a .gif or .jpeg is fine
What resolution should my photographs have?
Printed work requires high resolution photos whereas web can have low rez. The solution is to always take high resolution photos.
