Dear future Client or Employer,
My name is Curtis David. I currently Freelance in Creative Art Direction, Video & Media
Production, Graphic Design, Web Production as well as Custom Mural & fine art Commission work. Having covered a broad spectrum of media for the last decade I am confident in my ability to provide a high-end product with 100% customer satisfaction. As an artist I am always looking for something new that will help me grow and I embrace any opportunity that will showcase my talents in doing so. A little something extra... Whether a wall or computer, I am more open today with the message of the piece. It is not just about drawing pretty eyes or perfectly drawn hands to me anymore. I owe this greatly to job experience and personal freelance exploration as an artist. I a m ambiti ou s, I am o utgo in g, and I am cr eat iv e. Please visit my website and take some time to look through my work. Feel free to contact me anytime about your creative needs. Thank you so much for your time and I hope to hear from you soon. //curtisdavid.com Sincerely,
