Artists requiring professional framing of their work will not be disappointed either; when a picture is well framed it will, without doubt, assist in the sale of their work. Aware that artists often have to work to exhibition deadlines, a flexible timescale is offered when necessary and a delivery facility and easy re-ordering system ensures a very positive service.
Layout Design is an affordable option for everyone who needs something designed ready for print. From promotional leaflets, flyers, postcards, brochures and guide books, to posters, stationery and adverts; Jo works with the customer to create something high quality and eye-catching - all with a friendly approach and a price that won't break the bank. Jo designed Sheringham Little Theatre's seasonal brochures, posters, flyers and programmes for over five years and she has also undertaken design projects for North Norfolk District Council, plus other artists, galleries and holiday home providers.
