DESIGN FOR THE ARTS

My professional background is in museums, galleries and universities. I now freelance in print and website design for artists, musicians and arts organisations.

I specialise in small, customised websites and graphics projects, working closely with you to create distinctive presentations of your work.

Pocket cv

For many years I designed fine and decorative art exhibitions for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim Collection and the Frick Collection in New York, the Museum of Islamic Art of the Kuwait National Museum, and in the UK, English Heritage, the National Museums & Galleries on Merseyside, and the National Trust.  Biography
