I work well with art direction and alone, with a thorough system of sketches, page development, and execution. I finish all of my works myself, so no scanning or cleanup should ever be required on the part of the client.

My procedure begins with a sketch phase, upon which the client makes as many changes as necessary at no extra charge. I will be happy to work over the phone, email, or in person (there will be a traveling charge, depending on distance required). Once sketches are approved, the illustrations are created and submitted for approval. Minor changes incur no extra charge, but major deviations from the initial sketches will run an additional $33 per page changed. Once all pages are approved, I will provide the full resolution, complete illustrations either electronically or with high-quality prints as necessary, along with color comps.

I work quickly and efficiently without sacrificing quality. I am used to working on tight deadlines, so feel free to challenge me. If your work is of an educational nature, I will be more than willing to work with your content consultants for accuracy.
