I was contacted by a former Disney Product Manager (a former co-worker) who was working with a Disney Licensed Art Gallery owner. The gallery owner needed help with a catalog. They had already created a catalog with a different designer that wasn’t up to their standards. Since I was the Design Manager/Lead Designer of The Disney Catalog, they figured I’d be able to help them out and redesign it.
I designed and produced a high-end 24-page glossy catalog of Licensed Disney Artist’s work that he was very impressed with. After doing that project, he began expanding his business, and I did quite a bit of work under his businesses Colorado Seasons and Enchanted Painting. I rebuilt the EnchantedPaintings.com website and then created store signage, email, and social media campaigns, and printed posters, postcards, and sales flyers. His business started growing rapidly and he moved his gallery to a larger and more desirable locating in downtown Denver and created a new brand The Incredible Art Gallery. He needed branding, signage, a new website, posters, email and social media campaigns and assets, packaging, and all print materials. As a 360° Designer, I handled everything and even became his business consultant as well. He continued to branch out and I created the branding and website for Darthworld.com as well. After he was all set up, he hired an internal staff who took over everything. His business is a great success story and his business is growing to this day.

Disney Fine Art licenses the work of the top Disney Fine Artists in the world. One of their largest retailers was creating a catalog of artwork by another Catalog Designer. They were not happy with that design and contacted me to bring my Disney experience to help them create a stunning catalog of their work in 2 weeks time (from scratch). I was more than happy to get the assignment, and produced a catalog that everyone was head over heels for. Including me, because of this, I have had an ongoing working relationship with everyone involved.
