About me
Hello! I’m Mark! I’m a creative based in the North East of Scotland. I’ve just recently graduated from Gray’s School of Art so I’m a very keen bean. Over the last 5 years I’ve been learning everything I can about design, branding in particular. My recent work demonstrates my abilities as a creative, showing how I can turn a simple idea into a strong, creative and successful brand. I’ve spent the last year broadening my skills and focusing on ways I can use design for good - making a positive difference within society. Feel free to get in touch! You can drop me an email at penniemark@gmail.com or if that’s too formal send me a message on Instagram @_markdesigns
