Here are some samples of Marie’s graphic arts work over the years working for small business and her own projects. Her training began as a kid, interested in laying type for letterpress, then moved into pre-press production – which includes the challenge of calibrating for a massive process camera! Marie then moved into Macs and websites, enjoying the luxuries of electronic processing for ease of business communications, promotions, and pre-press production.
