"Creativity, technicality, innovation, conceptuality, inner-meaning, outer-purpose, interpreta-tion and the acceptance of reality; breaching the bounds between culturally anticipated stan-dard and original, experimental ideas, I, Cat D Gerwig - illustrator, designer, photographer and writer - keep these in�uences in mind with every project that I take on and associate with, personal as well as professional, innovation being my greatest inspiration of all. To express a communication of inner-vision and originality, I am always looking for new ways to incorporate both my client's ideal interests and a creative approach to visual and interpretational experi-mentation into my own personal philosophy, creating products and services that are variant and unique, interpretationally inspiring and yet still maintaining professionalism, eye-catching design and �exible justi�cation.
I am a multi-medium creator and innovator. Being both, one must not be held back by anything detering a productive outcome. I �ourish when given a challenge and ensure only the highest quality of work when granted the opportunity. Take part in my talents, allow me to provide the absolute best services required to accomplish your own progressive goals, and for all those with an interest in creative expression and the inspiration to succeed: Open your mind to the possibli-ties afoot. Don't be afraid to do something di�erent, and you won't regret having come across the creative process of Miss Cat."
