I have been able to utilise my knowledge of Sketchup to create some fantastic interior and A little bit about me… exterior designs I grew up with family around me who were sign-writers, graphic designers and portrait painters. The first computer in the house was a Mac when they were in black and white! I’ve been using Mac design and layout utilities from an early age and this has given me a very keen eye for design and digital image in many different areas. I am not tied to one discipline and having this wide skill set at my disposal allows me to solve problems easily. I have strong skills in Illustrator, Photoshop, SketchUp and Kerkythea. I am a rapid learner and will pick up any graphics/layout package in no time at all. All images Copyright © Ben de Montagnac.
