Ricky Irvine, Graphic Designer
For several years I have invested myself personally, academically, and professionally in graphic design. In 2004, after completing formal studies, I designed for Louisville Metro Parks. In 2005 I got my hands dirty in the print shop at Warner’s Printing Service, and by 2006 found work alongside Bowin Tichenor at his Blue Bus Cafe, designing for all sorts of people in print and interweb media. In 2007, I attended An Event Apart which fueled my desire to make better websites. Since then I have been freelancing full-time from my home studio.

A huge thank you to the web developers who have given freely and abundantly to the interweb development community. Traffic statistics are seen through the eyes of Google Analytics.
