Mike Boas has years of experience designing artwork for print and web. The main goal with any project is to imagine the end product and work backwards to suit the client’s needs. Should the design have a rough, painted look, or be more bold and graphic? Mike typically begins with pencil sketches, but then moves to Photoshop or Illustrator depending on the work. He keeps clients in the loop on a job’s progress and can coordinate with printers to assure that all delivery specifications are met correctly.
