I am A. Bell Carter, a visual designer and educator. I run a collaborative graphic design studio and I have 20 years of experience serving businesses, publishers, and the arts.

IF YOU ARE AN EDUCATIONAL PUBLISHER:
I work with subject matter experts and editors to design and art direct effective print, online, and multi-media materials that reach students and inspire teachers. Whatever the scope of the project, I’ll bring together the talent and media needed to produce an exciting and educating experience.

MARKETERS and BUSINESS OWNERS:
Our creative collaborative combines great ideas and know-how to realize your marketing and branding objectives. We will work with you to develop your identity and promote your business via print materials, web, e-mail, and sales venues.
