Hello

I'm Heather Jarvis, and this is rather obviously, my site. I've been doing freelance design and tutoring for the last two years while I lived in Edinburgh after completing my MSc. in Design & Digital Media at the University of Edinburgh. Now I'm back living in Toronto, doing much the same thing (thus far).


I'm also one half of the open-source design studio phaxmachine, as well as co-creator of the upcoming Hobo Cartel.


I have special talents in the following areas:


  • XHTML/CSS
  • PHP/MySQL
  • Blender 3D
  • After Effects
  • Processing
  • Photoshop
  • Illustrator
  • Flash/AS3

Personal Site

14th October, 2009


Yikes, so I've spent the better part of a month designing and redesigning my site. I had taken the original site down ages ago, thinking "oh it will just be a week or two until the new site is ready to go". Flash forward to October, 3 variations later, I'm just crossing the finishing line now.

Glasgow University Union

30th August, 2009


Just finished up doing the posters for the Glasgow University Union's Fresher's Week as a project with phaxmachine. We've done it the past three years, and every year gets better. This year we went for circus-y type theme with amazing hand-drawn type, which was pretty ace if I do say so myself.
