Official Miss Universe T shirt - Produced for the Miss Universe Pagent in Trinidad & Tobago 1999 , the design depicts beauty in the many races of competing women, shy and wishful , all beautiful , beckoning the fragile humming bird,of which the Country was named (irie) the land of the humming bird, born of the steel pan , the national instrument of Trinidad & Tobago.

SPIRIT OF CARNIVAL - Powergen is the producer of Electricity in Trinidad & Tobago. The entire production is purchased by TTEC, the national electric Company and sold to the nation accordingly. Powergen uses t shirts as a vehicle to announce their presence and does not need to market their company or product, as they enjoy a monopoly in the industry. They however offer some sense of presence and The Carnival Season is the biggest vehicle of Advertising in the Country. For the fourth year in a row , I succeeded in securing the design and print contract for this occassion. The Steel pan, the national instrument is the core of the design and depicts both the spirits of the Pan Players and the less understood production of electricy. I used simple items, always seen on electric poles (resistors) leading to light, the final product ,an expolsion of vibrations (pan) and colour(Carnival) The Design colours chosen were very mystic which interpreted well in the concept and off course identified the superstitious culture of the country. The shirts were produced through the use of four colour process with three spot colours used to highlite the bulbs and background spirit definitions. Shirt colours were black purple and navy.

PLAY THE NEWS - Produced for the Guardian Newspapers in 2004 the design was constructed to place heavy emphasis on the new size of the Newspaper change . The Guardian, is one of the oldest Newspapers in the Caribbean and I was commissioned to use the new logo "The G SIZE " as a basis for a Carnival Tee Shirt Production. I married a Graphic woman playing the national instrument (The Steel Pan) . The Pans were formed by newsprint which allowed me license to capitalise on movement and definition. The design was printed as an eight colour spot which allowed more definition of highlites through manually produced colour separations in Corel Draw 10. Varied gradients helped achieve bold depth in the art. The final print could have easily been perceived as a four colour process production. The results were astounding both on a black forrest green and deep burguny t shirts.

DESIGN SERVICES - From Concept to Production, I have been designing for over thirty (30) years. The logo design effort led me into the entire range of Corporate needs including Business cards, Letterheads and Brochures, Restaurant menus , Promotional and Tourist apparel etc. Signs and Pacakging have also been a part of my portfolio . It is with greta satisfaction that my varied styles acquired over the years offers such diversity that I enjoy the options of having created original concepts , designs and productions for as much as five competitors (Banks,Insurance Companiesto name a few ) at one time, in one market , all different in concept, style and execution with all the clients' approval. The only semblence is the on time delivery and Client satisfaction.. In the T shirt industry in the past 12 years, all my employees proudly wore their uniform, The Islands in the Sun Logo on the left chest and on the back, my tag line, 99.9% IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH. I strive for perfection and I expect the same from my suppliers in the field of Colour Separations and litho, and screen Print. I therefore spend a substantial amount of time at the point of print, polishing the production up to the last minute. I enjoy acheiving Originality in my designs, and I strive to be different from the ordinary.

POSTERS/BILLBOARDS/CD JACKETS - Instore display and Product Id is one challenge with which I enjoy working. From the days of the LP record to the cd of the 21st century I have produced many record jacket cover designs in the Caribbean. The most recent cd "In the Mood" was launched in February 2005 , seen above. Always action and movement in my creativity helps define visual impact and presentation at the instore retail level. Posters , shelf talkers and fliers are all part of my portfolio.
