Weaving superior quality with creativity...

"Clip Art". You've seen it. You just don't remember it.

Mediocre design, forgettable work; we've all been subjected to it.
If you are pulling your images from the popular clip art packages or from shareware and free collections on the web; then chances are everyone else is as well. You will see the same images popping up on fliers, in ads, gracing newsletters and Web pages. Royalty free illustrations and stock photography are relatively inexpensive; availabile and ready at a moment's notice. That exact same image; available to everyone. Including your competitor. How much will it matter if they do? There is nothing you can do if they see it; and in turn - use it.

Consumers are bombarded left and right with advertising images. One key to getting your message read is to make your ad stand out as unique, different, eye-catching. Whether it's a single brochure, web site, logo design, traditional print advertising, direct mail, marketing campaign; one of a kind illustrations make your upcoming project more effective and memorable. Custom illustrations make your materials come to life.

Ascender's self-directed efforts won over 65 national and local awards in the areas of graphic design and marketing. Unique illustration; along with creative ideas, captivating copy and solid design are the ingredients that made this possible.
