Ken Brisken (Graphics, Illustrator & AutoCAD) –
Ken Brisken has worked as a technical illustrator and graphic artist for ten years. He started in technical engineering documentation. He also created 3-D presentation illustrations for trade show exhibitions. The 3-D drawings were then converted to CAD production shop drawings and documentation for assembly procedures.
Ken has been working with Lauren Anderson Design for six years and has been part of the production team as AutoCAD drafter for commercial design and construction, interior design, and casinos. He has also worked closely with Lauren in creating original commercial advertising, corporate graphics, and corporate and commercial signage.
“I like working with Lauren in that he challenges me to take the graphics medium places I didn’t know could be done. To become more accomplished technically meant learning 3-D Studio, Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, In-Design, and Corel Draw. We also do many revisions which, besides driving me crazy, also guarantees that the finished product is original and flawless. There is a playful quality to Lauren’s architectural and graphic designs which not only relieves much of the stress from production but is also reflected in the liveliness of the finished product.”
