Stephanie Priddy the designs of
Design has been a part of Stephanie’s life since her early childhood. The first inspiration for her was her mother, who worked as a advertising saleswoman for a newspaper and had to design ads. Her mother’s influence continued into scrapbooking and inspired Stephanie to experiment with layout and fonts. This passion for layout continured into the digital realm as soon as she was old enough to use a computer. One of Stephanie’s childhood passions was to take quotes or poems other had written and design a back ground and choose a font that matched the writing. In high school, this hobby started to receive actual instruction and guidance. The two main inspirations for Stephanie’s teenage years were Mr. Greg Chandler and Ms. Angela Yearry. Chandler awaken in Stephanie the passion for the fine arts and introduced her to a whole new outlet for creativity. Ms. Yearry taught Stephanie how to use and produce designs on Adobe programs and showed her a this hobby could be productive. It seemed to Stephanie that she decided on a whim to major in art at Union University. However, in retrospect, her whole life had been preparing her for this education and occupation. It was in college that Stephanie found that while design is still her major emphasis that her creative persuits expanded once again into the arts. She discovered a style that emphasizes hand drawn patterns and doodles. Color, line and texure are all elements that she is fond of and impliments frequently into her work. Stephanie has worked for the Paris Post Intelligencer in her hometown of Paris, TN in their advertising department and produced the logo design for their Readers’ Choice Campaign. She has worked for the Union Film Festival, Student Government, and other local clients. Stephanie is currently working as a free lance designer and finishing up her design education. Her dream is to work in someway with nonprofit organizations or in such a way that her designs shall benefit someone.
