Describe your creative process.
I like to meet a new client face to face (if possible) to build a rapport and to get to know the person, so get an understanding of how they think and their aims.
Once we agree on costings and timings I like to create some rough visuals to establish a direction. I'll then develop one or two options to confirm the design and the client is happy.
I like to keep in contact and let the client see how projects are developing, be they design projects or paintings/drawings.
What information do you need from a client before you can start work?
Basic information: to see if the client has a clear vision of what is required.
Timing is crucial - a clear deadline is useful, to establish progression and targets.
As much information / photographic references behind the project, so that I can fully understand the brief.
What do you love most about your job?
The creative process
Seeing a project coming together
Seeing a client's reaction when seeing the completed project
What inspired you to start your own business?
I've been a graphic designer since the 80's and have been involved in Art, but as a hobby.
My circumstances changed at the end of lock down etc and I found myself in a great position to combine both sides of my passions.
I alternate between Graphics and Art as an when, enjoying both very much.
Why should our clients choose you?
I can offer a very personal service, with enthusiasm.
An advantage is a bespoke personal service, dealing with one person only, at a time suitable for the client.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
My clients are based in various places in the UK. Much of my design (and Art work) is via email/Skype/Zoom/Messenger as necessary.
So being in direct contact isn't necessary to keep a relationship between myself and a client.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
My studio is accessed remotely from the house. If a personal visit here is required I will keep the door/window open and keep distance - mask etc.
I can also visit, taking the necessary precautions - if required.
