How to understand a requirement for a visual illustration that must convey a specific message or purpose and convert it into a powerful graphic design requires imagination, skills and experience. Kelly has these traits, and he excels in this field. On many occasions Kelly supported and worked with me on a variety of design projects ranging from brochures and literature to web sites; from complex business proposals to business logos, store front design and business cards. During my years of work with Diemaco / Colt, GMA, Scepter Canada and Reef Boutique Toronto I drew on Kelly’s expertise and creative mind. He always worked with dedication and focus on tasks at hand, and he delivered results that were integral to my own success and the success of the businesses.  I highly recommend Kelly for any Graphic Design tasks.Less

I have had the pleasure of knowing Kelly Stumpf for around 20 years. I began working with him on my research for a book I wrote which included the company, Diemaco where he worked. He provided me with manuals he had written, artwork, advertisements and brochures he put together as well as charts he prepared. He is brilliant with photoshop as well as any other tools he used in marketing. He also was an archivist to the company and was aware of every aspect of his business. If he did not have what I needed, he got/made it. He is a pleasure to work with and would be an incredible asset to any company that would be fortunate enough to have him.Less

Kelly was an excellent student while at the Graphic Design Diploma Course (3 years). during the years from 1993 till 1995. Graduating in 1995. That graduating class was one of the better classes in the 90’s decade….Kelly was one of the top 10 students (academically), in that class. His inter-personal skills stood out because of his excellent sense of humour and because he often helped fellow students who were struggling. He was a favourite with his classmates because of these qualities. I would have no problem recommending Kelly for any senior position on his class outcomes not to mention his many years as a senior graphic design and art director with Colt Canada among others.Less

I’ve known Kelly for the past 10 years as a business associate, client, martial artist, instructor and friend. He is one of the most hard working, dedicated and goal orientated people I know.  Kelly obtained a black belt from my academy years ago which is no easy task. After several years of training 3-5 days per week I hold a grueling 6 hour testing very few adults pass. This is a true testament to the mindset and dedication one must have to accomplish such a feat. While he was at my academy he always trained hard, helped others and was a pleasure to have in class.  Years ago I was looking to employ a contract graphic designer for a few of our company logos. Kelly was immediately willing to help and volunteered for the position free of charge.  Kelly created a few different logos for us which has branded our company. Because of him we stand out from the rest and have established a couple well known and recognized logos. He also independently arranged for printing of merchandisLess
