NAME: Ashley Clark+ AGE: Thirtysomething
LOCATION: Portsmouth (UK)
PROFESSION: Graphic Designer
PAST: Originally from Lincolnshire, I went to DeMontfort University (Lincoln) for 3 years where I studied art and graphic design. I then moved to East Anglia for a further 2 years of study at the Norwich School of Art and Design and graduated in 1999.
PRESENT: I have lived and worked in Portsmouth for over a decade now and I have been lucky enough to have worked in several vibrant studios. I have worked on pretty much every type of project a designer can in my time here, primarly on design for print projects. I love picking up a box, business card or brochure I designed and seeing it as the finished article. Even after all these years I still get excited that something that started as an idea in my head gets put into production.
I am senior designer in my current studio, working on commercial packaging design and product/graphic development. Due to the commercially sensative nature of the work and client confidentiallity I cannot discuss much of my day to day projects online as it is a highly competitive market, but if you wish to know more about my current work please contact me directly here.
FUTURE: Who knows what the future holds. As long as I am working on sometrhing that allows me to express some creative flare then I will be happy.
HOBBIES: I love playing guitar and jamming with my friend and designer Mark Maguire. I am keen on photography, rugby union and knitting (I'm joking about the knitting).
