Walk in the Park is the professional face of myself, Marshall Lloyd. I have been in the graphic design world, in some form or another, for about 15 years. I started out at a grocery distribution conglomerate in their internal advertising department, doing traditional paste-up of newspaper ads. With the introduction of the Mac SE computer, I trained myself to make small ads on the computer. In the span of a few years, I made the total migration from paste-up to all electronic layout and design.

The next leg in my graphics design journey came as a art director with a fledgling ad agency. Once established with some good clients, the agency experienced solid growth. With that growth came new design opportunities, namely web site design.

Over the next few years, I focused my attentions in the web and multimedia areas of design. I trained myself in Director, Powerpoint, expanded my expertise in Dreamweaver and Photoshop, and began adding new tools such as 3D illustration.

After almost 5 years with the ad agency, I had an opportunity to work for my local PBS affiliate as a webmaster. With the complete freedom of this position, came a chance to grow my personal business (Walk in the Park) and my other interests, such as 3D illustration and design.

I am completely self taught in all the programs I use, and I am self motivated to continue to grow as an artist and designer.
