I’m a digital artist and graphic designer based in Victoria,
British Columbia. Justindeed Design Co. is my one-person art and
design studio.
I make original artwork, prints, greeting cards, and selected
commissioned and design work.
A brief history
Pushing pixels since 1993
Founded in 2017, Justindeed Design Co. has consistently been at
the forefront of things I should be taking more seriously. This business is not my full time gig; it's a creative outlet and an extremely inefficient and expensive way of making new friends (worth it).
I’ve been making digital art since 1993, when I was given
Mario Paint for the Super Nintendo as a gift.
Mario Paint was an early paint program on a game cartridge that used a
mouse as its controller.
Time playing brain-rotting video games was strictly monitored,
but Mario Paint, a creative pursuit, had fewer restrictions. So, when I wasn’t playing
Sonic the Hedgehog, I spent hours painstakingly
recreating scenes from my favourite games in
Mario Paint, pixel by pixel, looking up at the
flickering TV tube from the shag-carpeted floor.
The shag is gone, but the curiosity about technology as an
artistic medium never left.
