JAWSH SMYTH – Graphic Man

This portfolio site represents 10+ years of experience and craft as an art director, graphic designer and illustrator. I am dedicated to creating high quality design and compelling images for the arts, music, entertainment, fashion, non-profit and eco-friendly causes. I have worked in Los Angeles for 11 years, graduated from UCLA's distinguished Design Department in 2000, and since then created high-quality work for House of Blues, United Way, and FIJI Water, to name a few. I am a holistic designer, able to create consistent branding for ads, publications, packaging, apparel, events, and displays. I have a solid grip on motion graphics for commercials and broadcast design, and I am currently focusing on interactive design. I stand out from other designers in my ability to create premium products with a personal touch. I often incorporate hand-made elements into my work, such as original drawings, paintings, and photography. The interplay of digital and traditional media can often produce fresh, whimsical and striking results. (And yes, I turned my face into a logo. What can I say, I'm a man of the graphic. Side note: My brother, in an act of utter coolness and family loyalty, even tattoed the face onto his arm.)
