Wes is a very creative dependable artist with an ability to think outside the box while maintaining the objective. I have worked with Wes on numerous projects where he has always been able to deliver and work as a team player. I would recommend Wes for any creative support position.

I had the distinct pleasure of working with Wes during my time at GFX. I worked with Wes on a number of creative projects and found his energy and enthusiasm to be contagious. Wes is an 'out of the box" thinker who has quickly understands the strategic direction a project must take but always provided unique directions that inspired and provoked new insights. He was always hard working, many times burning the midnight oil to keep projects moving, and brought his projects to execution on time and within budget. Anyone needing a thinking man's creative to add to their team will find a real asset in Wes.
