"Creativity, technicality, innovation, conceptuality, inner-meaning, outer-purpose, interpretation and the acceptance of reality; breaching the bounds between culturally anticipated standard and original, experimental ideas, I, Cat D Gerwig - illustrator, designer, photographer and
writer - keep these influences 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 experimentation 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 flexible justification.
I am a multi-medium creator and innovator. Being both, one must not be held back by anything
detering a productive outcome. I flourish 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 possiblities afoot. Don't be afraid to do something different, and you won't regret having come across
the creative process of Miss Cat."
