Background

My name is Rob. I’m a London based Senior Creative Artworker/Studio Lead/Head of Studio with 25 years+ experience across multiple channels – advertising, marketing, packaging, shopper POS and online promotions etc. for a very large number of blue chip brands within many high profile London agencies.

I provide a full service, at your place or mine. Be it running the studio, getting an entire campaign out the door (across all media channels), creating high finish visuals from scamps, retouching, being brand/s guardian for all your output, styling of pitch documents along with my fine eye for detail and great typography, delivering your print ready or digital artwork on time and on budget.

Having worked as a contractor from many years, both in the UK and Australia and during that time becoming an Ambassador for Adobe providing training on the CC suite to the BBC, IPC Media and many others which led to a teaching post at the Kent Institute of Art and Design (KIAD) which I greatly enjoyed, I decided in 2009 the time was right to start my own studio.

Whilst I absolutely love the studio environment and being a part of a bigger team, sometimes that isn’t logistically possible. To this end I founded Macticulous LTD to be a one stop shop for all of my services direct from my fully equipped studio and digitally delivered to yours, distance no object.

Please see ‘Expertise’ section below for full list of services.

Thanks for stopping by.
