Good day!

There is such pleasure I find when I can illustrate stories and characters and create amazing designs for the selected target market! I would love to bring my talents as an illustrator/graphic designer/3D visualiser to bring the stories of your clients to life or make your clients projects stand out against their competitors.  I truly have a passion to illustrate stories for children and help bring their imaginative worlds to life as well as take them along their journey as the story is read to them!

 I am writing to apply for the position advertised at your company. In my current role as a Freelance Illustrator I work with clients to determine their needs, develop a mock-up sketch or storyboard for review and then create finished product; these illustrations are used for various purposes including children’s books, advertising, personal artwork and their graphic design needs. 

In addition, I have highly effective time management skills as demonstrated by my ability to balance full time study and employment as well as multi-tasking. I have the ability to interact with a wide variety of people of different ages and backgrounds. I take great pride in my work as well as my eye for detail and a humble willingness to learn from my seniors. My past lecturers, employers as well as my clients can endorse my work ethic as I am honest, reliable, hard worker, professional, dedicated and always conduct myself with dignity.

Not only am I a skilled Illustrator but my communication skills and intuitive nature allow me to give customers what they want in their projects. With my Higher National Diploma in Graphic Design and my aptitude to teach myself the software Autodesk 3ds Max with V-Ray which is geared to a different field, my enthusiasm, hard work, passion for knowledge and experience make up for my lack of deep work experience yet I firmly believe 3d work complements my diverse artistic flair which crosses platforms. I am always eager to learn new programs, techniques, work overtime and the company’s particular workflow in order to get the job done and meet deadlines.

I am confident that I have those specific qualities as well as be an asset who can serve valuable contributions to your company.

I know you will find my work to be a good fit for your needs and welcome you to contact me and I be more than happy to share my link to my Dropbox portfolio.

Thank you so much for taking time to consider my application for the position. 

I look forward to hearing from you, have a good day!
