about me

30+ Years of Experience Designing Logos

With over 30 years of experience under my belt, I’ve honed my skills in logo design across diverse projects and disciplines. My creative journey has led from boutique design studios to larger ad agencies throughout South Florida, exposing me to everything from niche projects to national advertising campaigns. This extensive experience allows me to bring a wealth of knowledge and a creative eye to every project I am a part of.

My journey as a logo designer in Key West is a vibrant tapestry woven from my deep-rooted love for the ocean and a lifelong passion for art; each design choice is a reflection of days spent by the water and the inspiration drawn from the ebb and flow of the tides. Growing up in Brant Rock, where my youth was filled with fishing adventures and creative pursuits, the ocean and beach town vibe influenced my artwork, eventually leading me to merge these two passions into a career that celebrates the beauty and spirit of the Florida Keys. Each logo I create is not just a design, but a heartfelt expression of the vibrant culture and natural wonders that surround me, inviting businesses to hook their customers with a unique visual identity that resonates with the charm of our island paradise.

My Every Day Tools

I’ve been a Mac guy since attending 6th quarter at The Art Institute of Ft. Lauderdale and haven’t looked back since. Adobe has always been a part of my workflow and I spend 80% of my days bouncing from Photoshop, to Illustrator, to InDesign… and on fun days I get to use Fresco on my iPad which is my favorite place to explore my creativity.

"Made the process of rebranding our business very simple.."
I had a fantastic experience using Seth at Local Guy Design. He made the process of rebranding our business very simple for me. He came up with designs to rebrand our business logos (which are awesome). Then he created our first ever website, for the business. He created options for how we wanted to proceed and he made sure that we had plenty of input as far as content. All in all, a great experience with a very knowledgeable designer and artist. I would highly recommend using Local Guy Design.

"Absolutely out of this world"

I had the opportunity to work with Seth on a project (Geiger Key Marina, RV Park & Fish Camp) and his design was absolutely out of this world. Super amazing work, and even more amazing to work with Seth. It was really neat getting a chance to collaborate with a designer outside of our team, get all of the assets we needed to implement the web design, and build out the site within a few days. Seth was very responsive, easy to work with, and able to make design changes on the fly. If there's anyone I'd recommend to design your brand, or website, it's this guy! Thank you again for such a smooth experience -- 10 out 10 recommended!

"Professional, Talented and Efficient"

I just went through the concept design to finish process with Seth and couldn't be happier with all of it. He was recommended by a guy here in Sarasota and that reason was immediately obvious. He accomplished quickly exactly what I wanted, explained, and sent over measurements for. He is professional, talented and efficient. If you need artwork or custom design's done, do yourself a favor and contact him.
