GRAPHIC DESIGN AND ART DIRECTION
With over 20 years of experience in the field of freelance graphic design, the majority of which being in the music industry as a member of several bands, Wilson has established a distinctive style and garnered a substantial following for his art. His work draws influence from classic rock ‘n’ roll iconography and street art aesthetics and combines it with a deep understanding of symbolic esoterica to provide a unique blend of impactful visuals which also convey a deeper meaning within the subtext of the imagery.
In addition, Wilson has explored the various avenues of collaboration with other artists and businesses to create rich and comprehensive customer experiences, particularly in the realm of deluxe album releases for several bands. These endeavors run the gamut from extensively-layered vinyl gatefold albums incorporating puzzles, currency systems and calendars, to custom coffee, beer, and vodka packaging, to lavishly ornate chess sets crafted from walnut and bronze. It is this extensive experience with collaboration and creative direction that adds considerable value to any potential working relationship or project development.
VIDEO PRODUCTION
A university education in photo and video production has given Wilson the tools and skillset to document and produce tight vignettes intended for social media. The bulk of his portfolio consists of his work with the post-rock band RANGES, of which he was a member for over ten years and served as creative director and documentarian. Beyond recording albums and touring internationally, the group collaborated with numerous artists for their extravagant deluxe album releases, giving Wilson the opportunity to document a wide variety of trades and processes and provide additional richness to a project which evolved far beyond just the music.
SCREEN-PRINTING AND APPAREL DEVELOPMENT
Fifteen years of experience in the screen-printing business has given Wilson a deep understanding of the art form and the myriad techniques which can be utilized to deliver a wide range of results. Seeking the elevation of the craft beyond the mere application of logos to swag, he now sets his sights on working with clientele with an eye toward developing lifestyle brands which require cohesive aesthetics across apparel lines and who are looking to establish a consistency of quality over an extended period of time. This type of working relationship allows for far greater depth of communication and camaraderie than will be found in your average print shop.
