I live in northern Utah with my wife and family. I currently work at Pearson Education as a Visual Designer and I also enjoy doing freelance on the side. When I'm not working, I am either playing with my kids or hiking up the side of a mountain.

A SHORT HISTORY 
· John Stratton ·
Artist & Designer
Artist & Designer
I always preferred drawing pictures over taking spelling tests in school. My first commisioned work was drawing characatures of teachers in junior high.
In high school, I took up airbrushing t-shirts and license plates during the summer. After graduating, I lived in Spain and created murals as service projects.
I continued painting murals and drawing portraits after coming home. I enrolled in the Visual Communication program at Weber State University and landed a job as a graphic
designer for a magazine at the same time. Just before graduation, I accepted a position at my current job.
TESTIMONIALS 
“John's attention to detail and keen eye for design solutions were an example to me as we worked together on many projects. He is a self motivated, hard working
individual that would be an asset to any situation. I highly recommend John Stratton.”
