ABOUT CHUCK REKOW

I am a motivated and versatile creative leader with over 15 years of professional experience in graphic design, product design and illustration.I relish every stage of the creative process —from trend research and brainstorming to the finishing details. I am ever-mindful of my target audience and I enjoy working with my clients to strike the perfect emotional chord. I\'ll use whatever tools are necessary to get the job done, usually communicating ideas in lively pencil sketches before delivering in a digital format of the client\'s choosing. My clients appreciate the distinctive human touches in my work —a telling expression or gesture, an expressive spin on typography, evocative color choices, or a touch of dry wit. If there’s a story to tell, I will create an image that will make its point in a nanosecond but resonate with the viewer for hours longer. As a freelance designer and illustrator, I’ve developed the flexibility required to move from one wildly different project to the next. I\'ve learned to listen carefully to my clients\' marketing concerns, target the problem at hand and create a visual solution with efficiency and precision. I am always looking for opportunities to create engaging visuals with other creatives —or anyone with a message that needs to be expressed artfully.
