Behind the Scenes
About
Howdy! I’m Evan Grice, a graphic designer making brands and taking names for the past 10 years.
As evident from the photo you see here, cars have always been a driving force for my creative passion. My childhood dreams of being an automotive designer changed when I enrolled in the Graphic Design program at Algonquin College, and I haven’t looked back since. Born and raised in Ottawa with a brief detour in Montreal, I enjoy typography, live music, theatre, Pokemon, techno music and most recently the Ottawa drag community.

Frequently asked questions
You’ve seen the portfolio, now here’s the fun part. Think of this as a mini-FAQ — the questions people usually ask when they want to know who I am, what I do, and why I sometimes show up to design meetings with glitter still on my face.
-
I design just about everything — logos, websites, motion graphics, packaging, and print. I also have a soft spot for typography (yes, I’m the person who notices kerning on street signs).
-
I live inside Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, After Effects, XD, Premiere) and Figma. Basically, if it helps bring ideas to life — whether that’s a brand system or a bold drag poster — I’ll figure it out.
-
I’m detail-obsessed, playful, and big on collaboration. Outside of design, I also perform in drag — which keeps my creative energy extra colorful. Whether it’s pixels, print, or performance, I like to bring a little sparkle to everything I do.
Creative Hobbies
Letters, lines & little experiments
I’ve always loved practicing calligraphy and illustration, especially when it means capturing a stray thought and bringing it to life on the page. These little side projects and playful explorations remind me why I love design in the first place. Here’s a small glimpse into some pieces I’ve created just for fun. Cheers!
