About Anthony Papas

Born and raised in the Bay Area and now based in Orange County, CA, I am a creative professional with a passion for music and design. From sketching in the margins of my school notebooks to experimenting with paint and dreaming of becoming a comic book artist, creativity has always been at the center of what I do.My professional journey began in 2005 when I designed my first flyer for a local city event. It was distributed online and printed in black and white, simple but impactful. That experience sparked my desire to create for a living, and I have been building on that foundation ever since.I am a problem solver at heart and continuously look for ways to refine my craft. Whether exploring new tools or sharpening my skills in Photoshop, Illustrator, and Figma, I enjoy the challenge of turning ideas into thoughtful, visually engaging design. There may not be a “Generate Cool Design That Pops” button, but that is part of what makes the process rewarding.Specialties: Figma, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Webflow, Resolume.I am comfortable working across the full production spectrum, from creative strategy and branding to concept development and final execution. And every now and then, I still make time to dabble in music.
