Can your business afford not to be represented by the most appropriate image possible? The right identity is vital if you intend to contend in an increasingly competitive business environment.
A business or product identity needs to be researched and developed to ensure it is indeed what your market is expecting - along with the quality of our product, an identity is crucial to your marketing strategy.
The investment in a quality Design Eye identity is an affordable asset considering the impact it could have on your business.
I provide a continuing creative service for everything your business needs to communicate visually. From a business card that may be your first and lasting point of contact to an impressive, well designed and functional website - anything and everything in-between.
Your business will be judged by its quality of presentation and consumer perception. This means careful consideration needs to be taken on all forms of visual communication - from a press ad, premises branding & signage, flyers, brochures, banners, prospectus, catalogues, annual reports... you name it, I can ensure a high level of quality across all facets of your selling arsenal - including copywriting.
Quality photography is as necessary as good design and good copywriting when producing marketing elements. I have formed partnerships with some highly accredited professionals who produce quality photographs of anything from the catalogue products image to stylish fashion or inspiring commercial images.
Every picture tells a story, but sometimes only after the magic of digital manipulation. As an experienced illustrator I combine my experience of observation and application with the 'digital pen' to ensure any photographic retouching, contouring and placement is seamless and realistic. I can apply these techniques through photographic retouching, image merging, montaging and image correction.
I have enjoyed many years experience in producing commercial illustrations, from line diagrams through to full colour cutaways, human form and, in fact, any technique the project might require.
It's also an enjoyable diversion to be commissioned to produce relevant topical cartoons and caricatures.
I work in many mediums, from pen & ink, watercolours, aquarel, gauch, fine line or even ball point pen - and digitally by using Illustrator, Freehand or Photoshop.
Through my experience as a photographer, retouch artist and illustrator I have developed a range of fine artworks by creating a fusion of manual and digital styles & mediums. These works are marketed as limited edition prints of between 5 and 30 depending on the project. These can be purchased as numbered and signed prints on quality canvas or etching paper then freighted to any destination.
These fine artworks are available for sale through the cannonhillgallery.com website.
My works are seen in galleries in Tasmania, mainland Australia and the United States.
My full graphic design life doesn't leave time for much else. Still, I remain a keen composer of music - usually guided by acoustic, classical and electric guitars & keyboards, recorded and mixed in my home studio through Logic Studio.
These tunes are available for sale through the cannonhillgallery.com website and selected outlets, and snippets can be heard by accessing the links here.
