Award-winning Commercial Art by Stu Patterson
Drawing inspiration from mid-century greats such as Saul Bass, Seymour Chwast, Paul Rand, and Milton Glaser, Stuart embraces a hands-on approach to his craft. This philosophy allows him to create unique illustrations that stand out in today’s fast-paced digital landscape, where quick solutions often overshadow the beauty of tailored artistry.
In a time when quick, automated designs are prevalent, Stuart’s commitment to craftsmanship shines through. His designs leverage the organic quality of illustrated elements, allowing him to evoke emotion and convey messages effectively. Each project becomes a blend of color, form, and typography that engages and captivates audiences.
By marrying traditional artistic techniques with modern aesthetics, Stuart produces work that is both nostalgic and relevant. His distinctive style not only incorporates the foundational principles of design but also champions the artistry behind compelling visual storytelling, inspiring clients and fellow designers alike to value creativity in an age of convenience.
