Over the last 20 years,
I’ve assisted in establishing the art department at Quality Beverage as an industry leader. What began as a fledgling in-house sign shop for a beer wholesaler became an innovative and highly dynamic print/production, design/build studio specializing in
custom POS display, event signage and branding. The workload was constantly in flux and the demands of any given day could encompass a wide variety of tasks. From hours of meticulous digital painting and vector illustration, to opening the shop’s garage doors to a new vehicle and applying custom designed fleet graphics, to executing multiple layouts for small and large format print, and beyond, the ability to multi-task and seamlessly transition from one project to the next was imperative. Operating in both the digital space as well as hands-on production, resulted in being mindful of applications and techniques, organization, and efficiency that strengthened my design acumen and overall approach.
