Hello, I’m Jeff, a freelance designer and retouching artist.

My intension isn’t just to make things look good, I create visuals that solve problems, guide user behavior, and support a brand’s mission.

Let’s find innovative solutions that exceed your expectations while also meeting budget. 

I invite you to check out the highlighted sections below to see various examples of my work

 

 

Composites 

I strive to produce customized, compelling, well structured graphics through a blend of photography, AI-generated imagery, text, and illustration. These images have been created using Midjourney, Photoshop and Illustrator.

I animated this design to illustrate the transformation of the original raw image.

 

Illustrations

My objective is to create unique, clean vector forms in a manner that clearly tells a story, represents an object, symbol or icon. The images created in this portfolio were hand- drawn digitally using Illustrator. 

Retouching

Since 2001, I have been a preferred vendor for Cisco Systems, completing over 1,900 product retouching assignments for their marketing library. This extensive experience in technical retouching demonstrates not only my expertise, but also the trust i’ve earned in this highly specialized field.

Production/Pre-Press

Production services include image restoration, portrait retouching, and pre-press. 

Pre-press for garment and paper printing  prepares and optimizes the artwork before the actual printing process begins. It ensures that the final print matches the intended design in terms of color, alignment, and quality.

Photography

Beyond design, photography has always been a creative outlet and a source of inspiration.  

Duran Design Apparel

I partnered with Amazon and select print-on-demand companies to showcase my illustrations through my online t-shirt brand. The collection features minimalistic, cool, and quirky designs inspired by my personal interests and customer projects. Each piece is custom-created in Adobe Illustrator.

If you enjoy the designs, feel free to share the link. And a huge thank you to all our customers who send me photos wearing the shirts. it absolutely makes my day!
