“Wicked” monkey series for the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center’s “Wonderfully Wicked” Gala, 2009. Pen and ink and watercolor. Designed to fit specific spaces within the PAC; originals are 24 inches or less, reprinted to banner material at 10 feet and larger.

“Scott - After three years on the road of attending Wicked themed parties across the country, nothing quite caught my eye like your flying monkey pieces did at the Appleton gala of Wicked. The images captured a nice playfulness about our show, and immediately struck my eye as being reminiscent of some of the characters Maurice Sendak created in ‘Where the Wild Things Are.’ Our entire company loved them! Keep up the good work!”

- Steve Quinn, Company Manager, Wicked Tour

“Scott’s a great person to work with. His ideas are vibrant and his artwork definitely helped provide a personality to the Wicked gala event. Scott’s passion for his artwork and our community makes him a perfect partner!”

“Scott is a true ‘artist’ in every sense of the word. He did an excellent job creating the Tinker Character for my next book. His ability to take my idea from concept to delivery based off rudimentary descriptors amazed me and the end result was perfect. He was more than willing to make adjustments at my request and his pricing was quite reasonable. Scott’s quite the professional and artist.”

Heather Whittaker, Motivational Speaker & Author of “A Different Little Doggy”

“Scott is an incredibly talented artist/designer. His commitment to customer satisfaction is unparalleled. His creativity, patience, and work ethic continue to amaze me each and every time we tackle a project together. Thank you, Scott, for being such a valued business partner!”

Andrea Hogan, CBP, CCP Owner, Home Things! and My Happy Place

“Scott has worked on many projects for us and every one has exceeded expectation. He is very creative, easy to work with and sticks to a schedule. Without reservation, I would recommend Scott to anyone looking for a talented and creative illustrator.”

Abby Robey, Sales & Marketing at Xuron Corporation

Scott’s one of the best in his field. No matter how difficult the illustration project I throw at him, he manages to come up with the perfect result. I’m always impressed by his craft. Best yet, he’s just a good person and pleasure to work with.

Brad Rutta, Director of Marketing at Noel Group

“Working with Scott has been one of the better things I have done. We came up with the design of the “Enjoy the Fight” fish. After looking at Scott’s work we hired him to draw up the first fish. With the talents Scott was able to put the project on paper and make it come alive. We are still working with Scott on other fish and plan on using him again.

Scott also helped set up the borders for the website that gave it some personal touches. The art work is outstanding and I would recommend him for your next project.”

Louis Woods, Wolf River Outfitters

“The enthusiasm and pride our entire company felt in being part of your success was something we won’t forget. We cherished the experience, and look forward to working with you in other, mutually beneficial and fun adventures!!!”

Carol Van Vreede, CEO, Skyline Exhibit Resource

“If you are seeking an illustrator to best capture your company’s essence Scott is a great reference. He has completed several projects for Exhibit Resource and is easy to work with. His line of thinking is unique and unexpected but, in my opinion, very effective.”

Jill Anderson, formerly with Skyline Exhibit Resource

“I think the handout was the some of the best work I have ever seen. Yes, copy, illustrations, layout … it was all amazing.”

Glen E. Armes, Sr. VP of op2, a division of Old Republic Title

“Scott gave life to my brand when he created the illustrated logo. It went from just a flat name on paper to a living, breathing, exciting image. Now everybody loves TaxxDog and wants his protection!”

JeanMarie Hinds, Owner, TaxxDog, Appleton, WI

I love to work with Scott because his vision matches my creativity. When you can have a designer take your verbal ideas and make them come to life on paper it is magic. Scott and I have worked on multiple projects and I am always more than pleased with the results. Rare is the designer who is still actually a true artist that can take pencil to paper and then formulate that image into a digital masterpiece. I tell Scott this is what I see and he creates it. If you are looking for a graphic designer who is a true artist then you need Scott. He is also one of the most ethical and honest people you will work with. Scott always delivers 110% with a little extra artistic flair.

Dawn Nowakowski, Member Services at Fox Cities Chamber of Commerce

Mr. Alberts created for us an intricate, artistic and exquisite set panel for our 2005 Christmas musical production. Our audience rated it one of the higher elements of the production this year. It was professional in all aspects, eye catching and drew people into our show.

Mr. Alberts was a true professional in our working relationship. He presented his personal vision and was also willing to work with us to help the design be a true team effort. Thank you Scott for your wonderful contribution!

I am writing today to thank you for the great creative work you did on the logo for Career Works Fox Valley. After listening to the description of what I wanted to convey, you were able to create something that speaks to optimism, sensibility and the promise of a better tomorrow.

Thank you so much for being a great listener and a creative genius.

Scott is loaded with talent and his portfolio is proof of it. His illustrations are unique, imaginative, and simply amazing. Scott also excels in graphic design and is one of the most detailed designers I know. I give him my highest recommendation!

Rob Marnocha, Account Manager, OEC Graphics

“Scott is an incredible, talented artist and I so enjoy his energy. He’s dedicated to exceeding his clients’ expectations and he amazes anyone who has seen his work. Plus, he’s a lot of fun. I highly recommend Scott for your artistic and design needs. He, in fact, produced my logo and has done so for many business owners and events.”

Carolyn Dargevics, Business owner, consultant, writer, Your Publishing Source LLC

Don’t for an instant think that Scott is a “basic graphic designer.” He’s truly an artist, illustrator and yes, a talented graphic designer who approaches things from a fresh perspective. Interesting and unique work - he’ll make you or your clients stand out!

Susan Finco, Owner, Leonard & Finco Public Relations, Inc.

Jessica Ellenbecker, Owner, All Thing Jerky

“There are many reasons why I recommend Scott Alberts:

1. Scott is fun to work with. He has a great open personality that allows you to explain your needs to him in a very general or specific manner. The result is that he “gets” what you are trying to say.

2. Scott translates needs and explanations into great rough concepts that can be easily manipulated into refined graphics

3. Scott keeps you involved with the process so that he efficiently gets you what you need and at the same time you can mold the final product with him.

4. Technically, Scott has what is needed to get images in whatever technology package you need for web, print....

I wholly recommend Scott Alberts.
