Describe your creative process.
Although my process is roughly the same for each project, it can vary depending on the specific needs of design brief, I will create the initial ideas for the project, which the customer can choose the strongest idea to develop the project into the final design ready for proof approval. I expect that most jobs will have a few amendments which will be include in the proposal, until the proof has been signed off.

What inspired you to start your own business?
I started my business from a motor racing photography based project in 2013, i called that Stoxs Graphics as the racing i was photographing was stock car racing and i'm a graphic designer by trade, as i was getting requests for the use of my photo's i started to market my graphic design and printing skills, so over the last few years i've built up clients base from the racing and start up as a sole trader, i now have a wide range of customers from racing promotion company, children's book publishers, restaurant's, photographers and personal trainers to name just a few,
