Fifty Years Designing, Writing, Photographing, Drawing, Printing, Publishing, Developing, Designing, Branding, Creating and Listening.

Meet Les

Les has been involved in the business of graphic communications since 1973. As the world changed how we did our work from the drawing board to a digital screen we learned to adjust and embrace new technologies. But, at the core, how we did it changed but not the why. The lessons we learned remain the same and to this day have not changed. Being self employed taught us how to survive, to go above and beyond our clients expectations. After all that’s why they chose us in the first place and we did our best not to dissappoint them.

Meet Debra

Deb is a professional commercial illustrator. Originally from St. Catharines, she received many scholastic awards and artistic achievements. Deb was formally trained as a children’s book illustrator at Sheridan College and has since spent her career as an illustrator for several book publishers and advertising agencies. Most recently she has turned her attention to creating original pet portraits from our home studio in Manilla Ontario as well as helping me make many colour and design decisions.

“I am extremely passionate about my artwork and pride myself on creating a unique detailed hand-rendered illustration that you can treasure for many years to come”

The sweet side of life.

“I am inspired by memories of our childhood when our imaginations were filled with innocence and the promise of sweeter things we silently wished our futures would hold”.

Meet Mark Ridout

In addition to being a professional photographer Mark is also a story teller as is evedenced by his following bio:

My parents were both members of a traveling circus. They lived in a small trailer. I got used to sleeping outdoors at an early age where I developed my love of nature photography. My father was a contortionist and my mother was a sideshow fire breather. I was born a few years before they broke up over an alleged affair between my mother and a dwarf horse rider. My father left town and was killed a short time later when the suitcase he had folded himself into for a nap at the airport was inadvertently dropped out of an airplane for an American Tourister commercial. The suitcase survived. I performed in the circus as a sideshow act where my tall height and thin form earned me the stage name Giraffe boy. As a teenager I was separated from my mother when the circus went bankrupt after a show in Bobcaygeon. My mother had set the big top ablaze during a botched fire breathing demonstration. I was left to fend for myself and I utilized my skills to excel as an employee at a local burger restaurant where my spatula flipping exploits were legendary. During my days off, for extra money, I took photos of children siting on tired Donkeys as well as help set up the annual fair rides. I’m good with animals and children, I’m afraid of whips and I love sleeping in a tent.

Brian Jervis, Marketing Director
Victory Design is a key strategic partner for Neptunus Yachts. Given the importance of the Neptunus website to our sales and to the brand, Victory Design both designed and implemented a totally new website for us. Les’s creativity was critical during this process. What impressed us most was Les’s commitment to take the time for a site visit to understand our business and value proposition, and using this information to shape the new website design. Les demonstrated true leadership by looking at our competition, creating opportunities for discussing the evolution of the Neptunus brand as seen through the eyes of the website. The team at Victory Design deliver top-notch product and support, and are an absolute pleasure to work with. Neptunus Yachts is North America’s premier manufacturer of 65-75’ motor yachts, and has been building in the same Canadian shipyard for over 30 years.

Joseph Giardina, General Manager of Operations
Victory Design has been doing our work for over 15 years. Our website wasn't much to look at so we had Victory take a look at it. They gave us a proposal and we went ahead with the redesign. Today the site is what we should have had to properly present our new home projects. Victory maintains the site as well, we never have to give it a second thought. Changes are made over the phone and within a few minutes we can see the changes on our office computers.  We would highly recommend Victory Design to anyone who is considering a new website. They gave us a first-class website comparable to any I've seen in my industry.
