Award-winning Freelance Graphic Designer
Scott Saunders

Just a creative human perveying fine design with pixel and pigment.


I’m Scott Saunders — a visual problem-solver with over 35 years of experience as an award-winning graphic designer, art director, illustrator and freelancer.

Trained in the traditional methods of graphic design, I graduated Cal Poly SLO at the dawn of the desktop publishing era and the birth of Adobe Illustrator. Over the decades that followed, I've applied my creative juices and wide diversity in styles to serve a number of companies and a slew of freelance clients, which have allowed me to hone my skills in visual communication and brand development.

When I am not crafting logos and full brand solutions, I have a real love for designing book covers and theatrical show posters. You could say that at the core of everything I do is a love for creative storytelling — whether through pixels, print, stage, or screen. It’s one of the most powerful ways we’ve connected as humans throughout history… and how we share our humanity. I'm just trying to make the World a better place... one design at a time.

I am currently pouring all of my creative juices into freelance graphic design assignments while soaking up the sunshine (and strong coffee) in Paso Robles, California with my wife Happy.
