Rebecca Nolte

Freelance Design + Creative Direction

Denver, CO, USA
I am a fine artist and designer in love with the simple pleasures, traveling, and new adventures. Classically trained in Plein Air and Impressionistic portrait painting, I love to apply my color knowledge and trained eye to the design realm. My artistic background influences my hands on approach in all of my creative endeavors. As a graphic designer, I love building & crafting brands as well as working in the versatile nature of design.

I formulated my fundamental design knowledge & theory at the Rhode Island School of Design—where my drive, vision and voice took way! A rebel at heart, I love to push the boundaries and tackle design challenges head on with innovation, grace & grit. It is my passion to apply my diverse creative background to all forms and functions within my design practices.
