About Me:

Hello. I'm Robert Peters.

I'm a graphic design student from SUNY Farmingdale State College with a passion for art, drawing, animals, and an interest in video game design.

In my younger days, my creativity was fueled by drawing and video games, and through these interests I slowly yet surely got into art and design. Later on, I got an Associate’s Degree for Art in Nassau Community College and majored in Graphic Design in Farmingdale State College.

In the wide field of Graphic Design, advertising has captured my attention due to the tendency to focus on the production of stories and characters, thus focusing on visual creativity to sell products or capture the attention of the target audience.

Through design, I develop concepts and solve problems with creative solutions, delivered through clean and vivid creations. I hope to find an environment where I can continue to develop my skills and deliver design solutions to aid a firm in their efforts.

An animated gif of a telephone ringing on a table. The table's top is dark blue in color, while the rest of it is light blue. The telephone itself is dark blue, while the base is a light blue. Both are cartoonish and personified to some extent: the table has eyes and a mouth below its top, while the telephone's base has a lone eye that looks upward as the phone keeps ringing.
