why this image?
Because it says a little something about me, Ray Bauer.
This image is a small sliver of a painting created by a friend – Julie Quinn. Julie is unbelievably talented. She works on clayboard with calligraphic marks done with inks. She considers these markings her prayers and represent her dialogue with God-questions, concerns, praise and worship. She uses a versatile color palette – from earth tones to bright reds. I just love all of her work.

TESTIMONIALS:
Here are a few comments from people that appear on my LinkedIn page. CLICK HERE to see more.
“Ray has caught the essence of what our businees is. He has been creating the art graphics, communication literature and branding message that has caught the immagination of our customers. I know it and I can feel it.”
– Paul Meunier, Duckbill enterprise Inc.
“I’ve worked with Ray on a number of projects and every one has been given the attention to detail, both creatively and strategically, that I would have hoped for. And he’s always on budget. He’s funny, easy to work with and provides results. I would recommend Ray to anyone in need of the services he provides.”
– Sherri Sharp, Sharp Marketing & Advertising
“Ray totally understands that it’s Marketing first, Advertising second. Anyone can come up with a nice design, but if it doesn’t do its job then what’s the point? Ray is detailed, creative, and always manages to make your great idea even better. (How does he do that?)”
– Erwin Duckers, ConnerMichael Advertising
“A craftsman and a stickler for detail from kerning to color- Ray has always sweated the details.”
– Simon Alicia, Grey Advertising
“Ray is very professional, very creative and very easy to work with. He’s also very flexible to the needs of each particular piece, from standard, straight forward looks to edgy, hip, outside the box designs.”
– Julie James, Jewel Theatre Company
