I have been doing Freelance graphics for over 2 decades. I studied commercial art and fine
art and was involved in the printing industry for over 25 years
and have been working with computers for nearly as long. I took some college courses in computers, design and Multimedia but moved before I got my degree. I worked for awhile as production manager in an advertising company as well as the Ad production Manager for a monthly Trucking magazine,
I owned my own company as a print broker and had 2 freelance design
companies called Digital Design Graphics and Visual Design Graphics.I also did contract work for a local newspaper for 3 years designing ads and laying out 3 monthly publications. This site
will show you some of my commercial designs.
I have worked in
both the PC and the Mac platform and have done designing, preflighting and layout on both my laptop Mac (Power Book G4) as well as my desktop PC. Although it's hard to keep up with so many programs today,
I am fairly prolific in CS3-5 (PhotoShop, Illustrator, InDesign),Quark, Bryce3D,
Front Page, Dreamweaver,, Flash, Freehand and have dabbled
with CorelDraw, PageMaker, Authorware, Paint Shop Pro, Poser and many
others. I also have done some video editing in Adobe Premier and and Final Cut Pro as well as some sound
editing in Sound Forge. I have run a 40 channel sound board and multimedia
slide projection system for a few years in my church and have created hundreds of slides as many power point presentations.But my first
love will always be graphics and creative design. |
