Influenced by a history of hands-on design and illustration, I’m working to create an essential library of display fonts for titles and headers focused on strong personality.
After a childhood consumed by books, films, and endless hours drawing, a career in art and design was a given. My first job out of school was as an assistant designer for a small children’s book publisher, which offered vital experience in industry fundamentals while introducing me to a now obsolete paste-up process, just as it was being replaced by computer software such as Photoshop, Quark XPress, and InDesign.
Moving to the City of Bath, I was surrounded by talented artists and exposed to the creative, business, and technical aspects of publishing, spending five years as a senior designer working on a range of illustrated pop-up books. Then came a freelance career working on newspaper layouts, menus, album covers, T-shirts, posters, video games, and branding projects.
During this period, an after-hours hobby in movie poster art caught the attention of Computer Arts and Photoshop Creative magazines, followed by a feature spread in Matthew Chojancki’s book, Alternative Movie Posters. Around this time, I started Wingsart Studio, which became my online home for selling downloadable photography, illustrations, After Effects templates, and most importantly, fonts.
These became best-sellers on marketplaces such as Creative Market and MyFonts, eventually funding a year-long diploma in motion graphics for film and television titles. Inspired by creative heroes such as Saul Bass, Dan Perri, and Pablo Ferro, this was a period devoted to film titles and credit sequences, leading to my font work today.
Recently, I’ve worked with major studios in the production of film trailers, titles, and branding concepts, and via Wingsart Studio have fed this professional experience into a series of display fonts targeted at the entertainment industry. They’ve gained a reputation for a fun, retro aesthetic, some of which you might have already seen on Marvel’s She-Hulk, Dungeons & Dragons, Stranger Things, and Apple Arcade.
