VAN HOWARD

I grew up in Southern California and discovered the amazing treasures that beautiful state has to offer, from there I have lived a life full of skateboarding and exploring the beautiful California forests and beaches. My design style is a representation of my personality. I am quite simple and clean, with my toes dipped in many different styles; my designs tend to be more minimal and free of overcomplicated messages. The outdoors has really shaped how I view and translate the vision I have in my mind on to paper. I look to see how nature has solved its problems and look for inspiration to guide me in conveying my feelings and messages through image and type. Giving the viewer an over all emotion when viewing apiece quick and easily. Attending school and working a variety of freelance jobs throughout the Inland Empire and surrounding areas I have tailored my design to intrigue and compliment the wide range of viewers that this area has to offer. I consider my self a part of that demographic, so when I make a design for something that I believe in I will not stop until it is perfect and I can put my full confidence in the project.
