About me.
I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Graphic Design.
Over 18 years experience in the design industry with a background in fine art and illustration.
Here’s what you get working with me:
A fun, easy process even a bit mysterious and exciting.
One on one attention.
Heart, soul and dedication - authenticity at its finest.
My life as a graphic designer and a digital illustrator has always been a dream—a dream I have turned into a reality. Taking raw material and being able to translate what a client says into a concrete visual is one of the most rewarding aspects of the job. I love what I do and I feel alive when I do it. Art and design shape my life and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I PUT CLIENTS FIRST. LISTENING IS MY SPECIALTY. SATISFACTION IS MY HIGH.
Fun Facts.
I flew a Cessna 172 plane.
I swam with the dolphins in Jamaica twice
I painted alongside a local French painter at the home of Claude Monet in Giverny, France.
Love to travel.
The beach is my happy place.
Thai food is my favorite.
Stroke-survivor (brain hemorrhage)
Firefighter’s daughter (DCFD for LIFE! Whoo hoo!)
Joined Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey circus for 8 years (no, not as a clown, acrobat, or elephant trainer!)
Love action, comedy, drama, romance and sci-fi movies. NO HORROR. Nope, absolutely not.
Big fan of “rescue” sitcoms (9-1-1, Chicago Fire, Chicago Med, Station 11, The Resident)
Love “feel good music” - music that you can relate to, that hits you deep down in your soul, particularly, 80 and 90’s R&B, neo-soul, jazz and old school Motown Oldies.
More happy clients.
Rishawna is one of the most capable and talented graphic artists that I have ever worked with. (And with over 15 years in marketing/communications, I have worked with my fair share of graphic artists!) Her creativity seems endless as she tackles assignments from multiple angles, providing her clients a range of options to select from and tweak. As a bonus, not only is her work top notch, she is also a pure delight to be around.
