ABOUT Me
Years of experience
Hello, I'm Kerry, a highly experienced graphic designer with over three decades of expertise. Originally from the UK, I have resided and worked in Hong Kong for more than 20 years. In 2013, I established BlackSheep Studio, an agency based in Australia, specializing in graphic design and branding solutions for clients both locally and globally. My passion lies in crafting visually stunning and impactful designs that precisely cater to my clients' requirements. With a deep comprehension of typography, color theory, and composition, I ensure that my work remains current and aligned with the latest design trends. Proficiency in various design software, such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign, enables me to transform creative visions into reality.
