Hi, I’m Andrea – a highly experienced Freelance Artworker based in the beautiful North East of England.
Detail-obsessed and versatile, I’ve worn many hats throughout my creative career, starting out as a Production Assistant before moving into roles as Senior Creative Artworker and Studio Manager. I’ve managed entire projects from resourcing through to delivery, refined studio workflows, crafted print-ready artwork, caught last-minute typos, balanced impossible deadlines, and collaborated with brilliant design teams to bring flawless campaigns to life.
Since going freelance two years ago, I’ve had the pleasure of working with fantastic clients including Innocent Drinks, Côte Brasserie, and Newcastle United Football Club, as well as a range of design agencies.
My key specialisms include Creative Artworking, PowerPoint template creation, and retouching.
Take a look at some of my work on the following pages, and feel free to get in touch if you’d like to chat about how I can help with your next project.
