I design for print, web, publication, logo/corporate identity, large format,

I'm also BadstoneMusic - composer/producer/musician -

Art, design and music are my kung-fu.

I AM

an experienced Senior Graphic Designer with multi-facetted experience and expertise in Print, Web, Multi-media, Branding, and Marketing. I have a 3 year design diploma from Sheridan College and certificates in various web skills, and utilized practical web design honed over the years (in static flash, xhtml - front end), CSS and CMS. I measure analytics.

I am heavily experienced in all facets of design, print, screen printed graphics, large format (trade show) design and builds, embellishment and production art. I have exposure to new business research, and client relations.
I do socials and blog.

I am experienced in video editing
and sound engineering;
in photography, and successful eCommerce builds and management.
I am all-platform-literate. I have experience in repair, analytics, security, and, flexibility in new software environments, and proven experience dope design. I have stand-alone studio experience, strong adaptation skills,
and experience in team environments.

I am focused strongly on all aspects of embellishment and design of original sublimated textiles - from hoodies to paintball jerseys, long sleeve crewneck to bandanas - from ties to literally anything

I WAS

born into a family where several relatives are classically trained.
I was not. I decided to make it on a 'perfect ear' alone.

I was involved in several bands in my 20s, originally as a rhythm guitarist for a three piece band, then after losing my left index finger, a keyboardist and writer for two bands (with some drums); eventually becoming an engineer of sorts out of shear desperation and necessity. The true progressive garage band experience I guess you would say.

It wasnt until 2006, more than 15 years after playing live in a band, when I dusted off my Roland HS-60 studio board following years of neglect, and decided to get back to jamming again. It had been such a long a time; it felt amazing and was then that I decided to start writing again. Here we are today... over 170 songs in, and 18 years on ~ from idiot high school kids kicking it around in a Mississauga basement, to where I am now. I'm older and more in love with creating music now than ever before. I have been lucky to meet some key people over the years, who are gifted musicians, and, have taught me a lot about music; inspiring me to move forward trying new things with my work.

I love the process, the collaborations, and posting new music. My trip is cajoling these sounds into becoming moments together. I hope you enjoy my work.
Thank you for listening!

If you're looking for hot'n'fresh original team uni design, or a little somethin' for a one-off event... hit me up. I create original sub designs for jerseys, long and short sleeve(less) shirts, paintball jerseys, compressions, hoodies, and towels. There is no end to the ideas.

If you have an idea for shirts, hoodies, etc., I can design original sub colour artwork for it. All design/styles shown below are available for purchase. The hoodies are better without cuffs, just sayin. Contact me for details.

MERIDIANCOUNTY MASKS

Some woould argue, as the pandemic marches on, variant after variant, that masks are here to stay, at least for the foreseeable future. If you have to wear one, it may as well be customized to fit your vibe. We can sublimate any design, and apply it to our washable  two-layered, breathable masks. They come complete with an adjustable rope and toggle attachment system.
