Plastic Fly

The Artwork of Mr. C. Spliedt.

About Me

My name is Spliedt, I'm a Painter/Graphic Designer/General Pretty Picture Maker. The new site design is up! Go check it out: www.plasticfly.com . I am extremely awesome.

I do freelance graphic design. Contact me if you are interested. I do not work for free. Working for free or for "I'll give you full credit" is for losers. Please don't ask me to be a loser. It's just not possible.

I try to write everyone back. And by "try", I mean "often fail". Between work, painting, music, freelance design, my ADHD, a degenerative disorder in my arm and having a social life, I can't always get to everyone. So I'll tell you now, thank you very very much for all the nice things you've written me!

My Interests

I like bunnies, squirrels, robots, monkeys, robotic monkeys, bugs, synthetic sable hair brushes, acrylic paints, house paint, watercolor, Staedtler art pencils, Illustrator CS, Photoshop CS, color correction, color separation, trapping, photo retouching, photo editing, vector art, prepress, and the bass guitar.

I'd like to meet:
