Passionately Human Design - Web Design and Illustration

I have been working in the web design and development industry since 1998 and have become an expert in online information architecture, usability, inclusive and visually appealing interface design. My experience has been gained in diverse and demanding high profile environments including Europe's leading Government e-learning initiative, an ISP design studio, and a multi-national PLC where I have been responsible for creating high profile corporate internet and intranet websites. Since 2007 I have been working as a freelance designer and internet consultant based in Dorset, UK.

My online portfolio features information about the websites and print work I have created, and provides examples of my digital and traditional illustration. I am fortunate to receive the majority of my commissions solely by word of mouth, but I am also happy to consider new opportunities from commercial clients. Please contact me to discuss your requirements.

I am a strong creative director with a sharp business and marketing focus who is highly experienced in all aspects of online/offline design, brand development and illustration. I have an academic background in fine art and silversmithing, and mix my digital work with painting in acrylic and mixed media. For details of the services I offer please visit the commission page.

I believe that good web design although digital in medium, and facilitated by technology should always be created from a user's perspective, and therefore remain passionately human in nature and focus.

A great website is an intuitive organic balance of customer focused interface design, and process driven back-end technology, which work in harmony together to provide the user with the best possible experience.
