Available Talent

A. K. | Paladin Los Angeles Candidate
Photoshop Artist/Retoucher/Production Artist

Available For:
All types of positions

Ideal Position:
I am seeking freelance work or a steady position where I can offer my Photoshop compositing, retouching, color correction and InDesign production skills.

My ideal environment would be a studio or agency. I work best in places where I can focus without a lot of hand holding. I love what I do & spend my free time studying and honing my skills.

Ideal Environment:
After years working in large advertising agencies, I now prefer smaller agencies and studios where it is focused. I love very creative work and creative and humorous people. I like to be respected for my skills. I appreciate being able to work in my own space or small office shared with a few. I like to wear headphones and dislike loud studios.

Past Experience:
Some of my latest work has been Photoshop re-design and retouching for a series of movie posters & DVD covers.

I have used Photoshop silhouetting and production, Web promos, ads, and widget designs for sports focused news, Photo illustration and composition for large scale banners, and some InDesign production and layout for a published coffee table book.

Additional Notes:
I am a Photo Illustrator/Photoshop Artist, retoucher, and Photoshop tutor, and a print production artist & designer primarily with InDesign. I love working with Adobe Lightroom, and am involved in various local groups focused on Photoshop, Digital Imaging, Graphic Design and Production.

I am the assistant organizer of my local Photoshop User Group.
