Philip Hepler’s Summary
About 316 Graphics...
Since 1995 I have developed and refined my talents of illustration and graphic design. My career began as an artist for Carson-Dellosa Publishing, then moved to VF Corporation, where I became a lead artist for the Healthtex brand of children’s apparel. There I also had the opportunity to work on Lee kids and assisted with graphics for the Nike kids line. I have worked for Lollytogs and their associated brands, including Healthtex, Ready Set Grow, and adidas kids. God has truly blessed my career with these great opportunities!
Now as a solo act, I specialize in boys, young men’s and men’s apparel graphics. I also have experience in ticketing and hangtag design, logo design, promotional media and presentation media. I am also exploring ways to merge my faith and creative talent. Christian apparel graphics and media are areas God is leading me to pursue.
What sets me apart from others is my strong Illustration skills and the ability to adapt to a multitude of art styles and looks. I pride myself in my creative work and strive to raise my own standards with each fresh design. I look forward to working with you to give your product the advantage it needs to elevate it above the competition.

Sincerely,
Philip Hepler
