Spoon Graphics is home to a range of design tutorials, free resources and inspiration to help you have fun creating cool stuff!

Thanks so much for taking the time to browse my content here on Spoon Graphics. I hope you’ve found some interesting stuff so far? My aim is to help you create cool stuff by sharing tips, inspiration and resources to fuel your creative passion. Let me show you around and explain what you can expect to find in my own little corner of the web.

I post three main types of content: Tutorials to show you how to create awesome designs; Free resources to use in your own artwork; and Articles to share theory and inspiration from various creative genres. Every week you’ll find a new post that falls into one of these categories, alongside periodic updates letting you know about cool deals and site news.

Design Tutorials

I share how-to guides for Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop (sometimes other programs too) that show you how to create cool designs, styles and effects. Many of the tutorials I produce are based on my own line of interests, so you’ll find plenty of retro and vintage designs and abstract artwork. Here are a few of my all time favourites:

Free Design Resources

In the Freebies category you’ll find loads of hand crafted goodies that will save you time and help you create cool stuff. I often use my resources in my own work, so I make sure they’re up to standard and suitable resolutions. Here are some of my free downloads you can add to your own design toolkit:

Articles & Inspiration

We all need a little inspiration every now and again. I’m no exception, which is why I love browsing the web for awesome designs and artwork, then sharing what I find in the form of showcases and roundups. If you’re suffering from designer’s block, maybe some of these posts will help drum up some ideas. If not, there are plenty more topics to explore in the archives.

Videos

After years of producing written tutorials, in 2015 I began recording video tutorials to help explain useful tips and techniques in Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator.
