Hey! I'm nick (ba-lie-uhl)
and I'm a digital artist...
I've been in the ad game since 2012:
I spent a little over seven and a half years at MullenLowe Boston in various positions and I've been with Planit Agency in Baltimore as the Production Manager since 2019.
started from the bottom:
I came up storyboarding via Photoshop comps and managing InDesign decks for countless new business pitches. At the same time, I was sucking the brain of the agency's in-house retoucher to better my craft. I got to a point where my artwork was good enough for the small screens and became a Social Content Artist. I did this for almost 2 years and built a team in the process. Eventually, we handled all final artwork that came through the agency.
I'm wicked good at Photoshop:
My specialty is retouching and compositing. I've done retouching work in every genre there is: food, beverage, product, fashion, lifestyle, landscape, 3D rendered content, etc.
but wait, there's more:
I can version out assets with the best of 'em, crank out mechanical files for print, build mock-ups you wish you could download, and occasionally design something pretty.
