Digital art worker, Graphic designer and Creative concept developer. Always looking to work with current trends and put a creative, unique spin on them. Album artwork is where I would love to progress, however creating new and innovative concepts is something I am passionate about, whatever the area of work.
Formerly a fine artist I have self taught digitalising my artwork through a multi media/mixed media platform - primarily the use of Adobe creative suite. Through out university at Leeds I honed in my craft of a copywriter to a Visual copywriter, that resulted in specialising in art direction and creative strategy.
