bio

I'm a seasoned senior art director and hands-on web-graphic designer with a knack for visual problemvsolving. Over the years, I have led design teams, mentored creatives and collaborated with clients across advertising and marketing landscapes. My work blends bold ideas with modern, functional design brought to life across digital and interactive platforms with a fine arts sensibility and a get it done attitude.

When I’m not art directing or color correcting into the night, I moonlight as a contemporary fine artist with a focus on serigraphy (that’s fancy talk for screen printing). I'm fascinated by the sweet spot where Gestalt theory, design, tech and research all meet. Obsessed with detail and forever chasing a smoother workflow, I’m always pushing my process to be sharper, faster and just a little more magical.

On my off days, you will find me inking up prints in the studio, spinning hypnotic house music on vinyl, surfing at San Onofre, or geeking out over the latest design tools. I find inspiration in everything from repetitive beats to saltwater and believe learning is just as much a lifestyle as it is a goal.

I live in sunny Palm Springs with my amazing wife Natasha and our Boston Terrier, Charlie. Oh and if you're into classic cars, ask me about Virginia, my lovingly restored 1965 Ford Thunderbird. Want to chat serigraphs, design, or simply say hi? Reach out at chrisstone08@gmail.com. I'm all ears and occasionally, ink stained hands.
