  Diane Painter Velletri
 
Professional/Personal Overview
  As a creative director, art director and for over 15 years, I have provided art direction and design for a range of print and interactive projects and businesses: including cd packaging and related materials for record labels; banners, brochures and advertising for special events; logos, signage and printed materials for new image development plus many projects for education, publishing and various arts institutions. Recent projects include restaurant logos, restaurant menus and restaurant signage under Chow Ciao Design, a division of Design Diseno.

Being a good communicator, I can clearly and successfully take vague ideas and turn them into brilliant concepts and then, into beautiful, high-quality visuals - on time and within budget.
