Douglas Robinson, aka PipemanDoug:
An award-winning artist, illustrator and visual storyteller. A mustachioed master chef, cooking up creative campaigns and vibrant visuals that are fresh, inventive, and eye catching.
I’ve been the creative lead on hundreds of projects, ensuring they meet brand guidelines, hard deadlines, and budgetary boundaries. I’ve forged a reputation for my dauntless, detailed, and dependable design work. Over the last 30 years, clients have trusted me to represent their brands: the Atlanta Braves, Walt Disney World, The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Arrow Electronics, The High Museum of Art, and the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, to name a few.
Experienced in art direction, branding, character design, custom illustration, environmental graphics, photo color correction, icons, infographics, logos, product packaging, publications, building signage and more.
Born in Boston, raised in Atlanta, schooled in Chicago, and now living in California, I’m a proud alumnus of both The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and The Atlanta College of Art (now The Savannah College of Art: Atlanta).
I’m a former cowboy, theme-park aficionado, home-haunter, mini-golf geek, pinball wizard, and pipe-smokin' dude! Drop me a line if you need a passionate professional to lead your next creative campaign!

"I have had the good fortune to collaborate with (Doug) on a number of projects for my clients and hire him to help me with my business' design and branding needs. I have worked with a number of designers who were only able to produce exactly what I told them to. Doug is not one of those designers...he provides valuable input from his years of experience and presents you with creative expressions of your ideas. I have worked with Doug on email marketing campaigns, corporate videos, sales sheets, you name it, and I have always been pleased!"
