Michael is an amazing artist, and was very easy to work with on several custom designs he did for me. He's fast, efficient, responsive, and fun to work with. Highly recommend!

What a delight working with Michael. As a musician planning an EP release, I contracted with Michael for an original "Auger" album cover design. I provided a photo and Michael created an out-of-this-world off-beat art version of myself. The artwork for the front and back cover are perfect for the tone of the project. His responsiveness and enthusiasm make him a joy to work with. He finished his work on-time and cheerfully responded to change requests which must have interrupted his work flow but he didn't complain in the slightest. I will be going back to Michael for future work. His rates are great. He could charge more (but I hope he doesn't). More...

Took an incredibly rough scan of a faint pencil drawing and turned it into a terrific, full-fledged, color comic in a turnaround time beyond belief. Change requests were accommodated within hours, and the entire process was a pleasure. Thanks again for everything, Michael. More...

Michael was fantastic. We recently started a new youth athletic association in the Olney-Sandy Spring Area. We had some ideas and brought them to Michael. He was incredibly fast and helpful. No matter how many times we asked for an adjust or two it was never a problem. We went in wanting just one logo done and ended up doing three. We would definitely recommend Michael and will continue to use him in the future for all our graphic needs. More...

Michael's help has been a fantastic today. I've never created a logo before and with his help we had one done in less than a day. I had an idea and Michael took the idea polished it and made it look much better. His response to my questions was also super quick and very professional. Thank you. I would recommend Mike to anyone who needs a new logo design. More...

What information do you need from a client before you start work?
My rates are based on what you need created, how soon you need it, and the usage rights you require. I look forward to bringing your ideas to life.
What sorts of printing projects do you usually cater for?
Auger Artwork Studios specializes in custom illustration and design services.
Describe your creative process.
I first ask my clients for detailed instructions on exactly what they want created. (The more details the better.) After receiving a 50% down-payment of an agreed upon rate I get to work. Once finished, I send my client a low-res proof of the design to approve. At this point I offer one round of free minor revisions (if needed). Then, after receiving the balance due, I provide the client the final high-res final and grant the usage rights agreed upon.
What information do you need from a client before you can start work?
In order to provide you with a proper bid I will need to know additional details about what you need.
I determine my rates based on the following factors:
Project Description:
What is the size? How many colors? Please describe your idea(s) in detail so I can judge the complexity of your project.
Required Deadline:
How soon do you need it by?
Usage Rights:Â
How do you wish to use the artwork created; in what location? and, for what time period?
Please let me know the details above and I will be happy to provide you with pricing information.
What do you love most about your job?
I love the diversity of being a freelance artist. One day I'm illustrating an album cover and the next I'm designing a logo for the latest start-up. The role of a freelance artist is to bring other people's ideas to life and I enjoy creating solutions for my various clients by adopting the best appropriate method to communicate the specific message they want to impart.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Making a living as an artist was my plan from childhood. I've been lucky to have had a clear path to achieve this and I am fortunate to be able to make a living doing what I love.
Why should our clients choose you?
I provide professional services at a fair rate and always meet my deadlines. The key to a successful marketing campaign is standing apart from your competitors and I can help you to do just that!
