Design and illustration go hand in hand and are all about communication: delivering a message or telling a story with wit and intelligence. Through its visual vocabulary, an image can be feminine, masculine, humorous, serious, conservative or outrageous! I focus on bringing the whole story to life with meaning and emotion. Whether directly with businesses or in tandem with design firms, versatility, agility, and 30 years experience allow me to arrive at creative solutions quickly, making for a robust and efficient creative process.
