PEOPLE I'VE WORKED WITH HAVE SAID:
Phil is a VERY creative guy!
As a paying client of Phil I can say he is worth every penny. He can doodle up an idea in no time and is incredibly professional in the quality of his output.
Phil is old-school professional high quality design, not just some wet-behind-the-ears kid with a graphics package.
And he evens shows sound judgement in liking rugby and beer!
I highly recommend him and his services

Phil is old school, one of the nicest men you could meet and he has a wicked mischief sense of humour.
He manages to combine being a one man inventive dynamo with a delicate sense of balance and design.
Well worth knowing, working with and trusting... like I said... he's old school, the best kind.
