I am Shawn T Gray, a Cleveland-based graphic/web/interactive designer who specializes in creating sharp, straight-to-the-point web designs, original graphic designs and quirky, fun illustrations. I work to make the best products to greatly improve my client's business.
I've been living the freelancer's life since receiving my BA in Graphic Design from Cleveland State University back in 2014. During this time, I've worked with a vast variety of clients near and far. I've built logos, websites, full brand & marketing packages, created illustrations for children's books, and consulted with those who came to me looking for design help.
With never-ending curiosity, I am constantly studying the latest design trends, interviewing with design leaders, and subscribing to the top art and design publications — publications like Communication Arts bi-monthly issues in which print is still king. The physical aesthetics are lost when viewed on a screen.
I've traveled to Florida, Texas, California, and Chicago, all to grow my horizons without losing sight of my hometown pride. Cleveland has been revitalized over the past few years and is still improving. I am proud of this Rock 'n' Roll capitol on our Great Lake and I don't see myself leaving it anytime soon.
No matter what happens in the years to come, no matter how shitty the current political climate may be, I am holding onto the hope that people will rise above, work hard, and make this little blue-green orb floating in the void better for all inhabiting it.
