Peter Shaw
Design
Welcome! I'm an Australian graphic designer, illustrator, and photographer. I've spent my whole
life creating unique imagery in many different forms, communicating information using all sorts of media,
and managing diverse projects for a wide variety of demanding clients. These include multi-national publishing
companies like Cengage, Macmillan, McGraw-Hill, Pearson and Penguin - smaller publishers, local businesses - and
myself.
This online folio shows you some samples of my graphic design, illustration, photography
and personal work, which usually turns out to be to be pretty graphic as
well. I'll explain my approach to solving a variety of visual and communication problems
which will help you to understand and appreciate my approach to design language and picture-making in general
- less is more - except when more is the way to
go.
