Hello. My name is

Daniel Swan.

I'm a Graphic Artist.

ABOUT
ME
I'm a graphic designer, illustrator, and wannabe writer living near Flint. I originally hail from Detroit, where I attended the College for Creative Studies and majored in Illustration. My time at CCS had a really huge impact on me, owing to my love of the city, art, illustration, design, great debates, a good Coney dog, and random intellectual indulgences. For nearly 10 years, I have worked with a variety of graphic design disciplines; branding, print ads, web design, package design, information design and copywriting. I’ve always enjoyed a challenge and pushing myself beyond my comfort level. Thanks for dropping by.
