Hello there my name is Ed, and I am a Shark obsessed Graphic Designer with an unhealthy level of passion for Drums, Noise, Gaming, Films, Digital Graphics and general art/design. I am a self employed Multimedia Designer and Graphic Artist, with specific focus upon High/Low Poly Modelling, Web Design, Illustration and Game Level Design. My company went live in 2008 and the web site can be viewed at www.creative-resolve.com.

If you don't... well don't I guess.
