introduction

darthe hughes...

This website showcases my recent graphic arts projects for client review. If you are looking for an independent Graphic Artist to produce a website, or animated banner ad, I can do it for less money than a large design agency can, while maintaining a superior level of quality.

I produce logos and graphic elements. I design and build ECommerce stores, working off-site for Graphic Designers and Art Directors, manifesting their concepts and designs with technically clean code, finely crafted layouts and ActionScripted motion graphics.
