JUDGING A BOOK BY IT’S COVER

New talent! Illustrator Paul Bowers, makes sure the first impression is the right impression.

From hand-bound first editions to website mastheads to company logos, you never get a second chance to make a first impression. It’s this oft-cited and accurate phrase that inspired Illustrator and designer Paul Bowers, BA (Hons) to create a comprehensive online service supplying visuals that make the first impression a great one.

“A most impressive collection of graphics and designs.”
- A.W. Design Team Leader,
The Times Leader, PA

Motivated to give businesses and individuals a one-stop source providing rapid-response graphic and illustration solutions, Paul is establishing an online presence that stresses his commitment to making available fresh, effective visual communication. His website, www.4seventy.freeserve.co.uk affords clients the convenience of briefing, payment and receipt of artwork entirely through the Internet – instrumental to “Furnishing a fully functional art department without the overhead and complications.”

In this day and age when everything is presentation lead, it is increasingly important to communicate the ‘right’ image. We’ve all become more sophisticated in our interpretations of the visual language
surrounding us and design must be equally sophisticated if we are to convey a positive message to our audience. His aim is to afford anyone easy access to high quality design work through a no-hassle, fully interactive experience customized to the distinct needs of each client.

Information exchange and accessibility between Paul and his clients is the top priority. Visitors to his site have the option of submitting a simple form with general details about potential projects to receive a no-obligation quote, or emailing Paul directly with any questions. It is this personal contact that makes his all-inclusive service an ideal stop for anyone in need of affordable high quality art and design.

Following his studies at Falmouth School of Art and Design, Paul graduated from Portsmouth University with an Honours Degree in Art, Design and Media, specializing in illustration. He began his career as an editorial artist for an English newspaper with duties ranging from page layout and design to illustrations. Since that time the productive and passionate young artist has compiled a portfolio of artwork including, but definitely not limited to, modern and traditionally styled illustration, classic portraiture, informational graphics and self-initiated pieces. Paul’s commissioned works demonstrate professional representations highly pertinent to client brief. His personal compositions exhibit the creativity and expressiveness that add vitality to all of his projects.
