Hi, I’m Reid! I’m an artist + designer based in
Montréal,
Québec ︎
I’ve been making art my entire life & working as a professional for almost two decades. I spent my early adult years in Toronto, first earning a BFA in Printmaking at OCADU. I co-founded an artist-run store in Kensington Market & created a performance art event that ran 8-installments with over 40 different performers. I worked jobs in clothing retail, poutine-making, dishwashing, bus-boying, screenprinting, picture framing, art installationing, and many other glamorous things.
In 2013 I said, “That’s enough of this place” & moved to Montréal. Over the past decade (plus a few years), I continued to work in print, while venturing futher into digital spaces through graphic design & video. Around 2019, I began working full-time as a freelance creative.
Creative Direction, Motion, Video, Illustration + Design
When it comes to making tasty treats for brains &
eyeballs, I’m your guy ;)
Currently in the digital workspace, I’m highly proficient in Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, and After Effects.
If you’d like to work together, I’d love to chat! You can get in touch with me here.
Outside of my wonderful freelance work, I keep plenty busy!
I produce the clothing line DieDye.Co, make comics under the pseudonym Ryan the Wretch, and co-created the printmaking game Corps Exquis,
On Fridays, I work as the laser engraving technician at Atelier Circulaire, a historic co-op printmaking studio located in the Mile-End. I also teach annual workshops for linocut & laser-engraving printmaking techniques.
Other than that... I just sort of exist! :P
