to the digital gallery of the creative works of Pete Lyon
I am a creative professional located in central Pennsylvania. I am a life-long fine artist and have expanded my interests to include the world of graphic design in the last ten years. After graduating from Shepherd University in 2014 with a BFA concentrating in design, I have been working in the print industry. My latest passion, however, is web design and development. Largely self taught, it is the coding and mark-up that keeps me up at night.
In this website I will brag about how awesome I am, toot my own horn about the things I've done and the skills I've learned, and (hopefully) show you some pretty sweet images. Below I have links to my image galleries which showcase my graphic design work, illustrations and paintings. There will also be links to larger design campaigns (in the near future)in case you are interested in a more detailed look into my creative process.
"I see design as a solution to a problem. You must be solution oriented to be a designer. I see art as a problem. You have to be problematic to be an artist."
"I saw design and it opened up my eyes" - Ancient Swedish Proverb
"Design says long-haired, pretty people need not apply" - Tesla
I'm sooo good at:
Painting & Illustration
Adobe Creative Suite

These are the sites that I have built over the last few years. I am largely self taught and have spent countless hours watching tutorials on Lynda.com and YouTube. I am pretty confident in my html and css knowledge and have a pretty good footing in php. I can fiddle with javascript just well enough to get it to behave like I would like.
If you need help with a project or are curious about my rates feel free to reach out to me.
