Joined as a Technical Illustrator creating illustrations using traditional tools (pencils, ink pens, water colours and airbrush). As computers arrived, expanded skills in Mac use, graphic design, concept visuals, print procedures and electronic illustration/retouching. Also learned to create and plan websites and supported live launches. Worked with industrial and retail clients including JCB Excavators and the Midlands Co-Op, gaining broader understanding of how different marketing departments used an agency to meet objectives.
