Welcome to Nordgrafix
Peace and kindness to you. May God's love shelter your work, and may every creature that crosses your path remind you of gentleness.
I have lived and worked along the Space Coast in Florida for over 30 years. During that time I have gotten to know and admire so many small businesses. We chase failure, we pivot when we need to, and we never stop learning. Well met, friend.
Graphic Design
It's not just about getting a design job done, but creating files with best practice in mind and leaving your client with files they will be able to use until they rebrand. Whether the asset I'm working on is for print or the internet, I consider it a privilege to get to know what my clients are building and why it matters to them.
High Quality Assets
I have a lot of fun using AI tools like Copilot and Firefly, and I use AI to get the strongest, cleanest visuals I can. These become the polished elements I then move about in my layout program of choice. The effort is worth it because despite the saturation of AI, businesses must still capture attention, call to action, and get quality results fast.
Nerd Knowledge
I never gate‑keep the good stuff at Nordgrafix. Whenever I learn something cool or level up in my craft, I make a cutie little graphic to share what I’ve figured out so you can use it too. Most of what I share comes from real‑world best practices in the print world and the tips, tricks, and smarter workflows I’ve picked up using Canva, Adobe Express, and WordPress. If I learn something well enough to explain it to my former self like I am 5 years old, you can see it here.
About that Vector Life
I think I love making vector graphics so much because they feel like a tiny world I build with pure intention. Above is a map of my childhood - an illustration I made of the apartment complex where I lived and ran with a pack of feral kids - we all drank from a garden hose. I can still remember roaming every corner of Sky Lake Circle in the late 70's. The sound track would be Chuck Mangione Feels So Good followed by Paul Simon's 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover. You know what, go 'head and throw some Barry Manilow in there, wth.
