Wonderful artist and business designer. Brad is sincere. trustworthy and patient with both client needs and desires. He strives to learn the whole picture before offering solutions. Brad is willing and able to tackle solutions on short notice. I have several examples of Brad’s work that prove his abilities as an expert graphic communicator.
Beverly Long
Marketing Communications Manager, GROWMARK, Inc.
Brad Hensley is more than just an exceptionally talented designer and art director. He is a strategic thinker and business problem solver of the highest order. He does more than just concern himself with how an ad looks; he concerns himself with how well it works. And he keeps picking and poking, prodding and cajoling until the ad’s messaging, its visual impact, and its ability to promote the overall brand are everything he thinks they should be. It was this tenacity for perfection, as well his reputation for impeccable taste, that made Brad the go-to-guy when other creatives wanted a second opinion on their work. If asked, I would work with Brad again at the drop of a hat— and I’d gladly drop it myself.

If what matters to you are an unrelenting work ethic, remarkable understanding of color theory/graphics/type, and an unfailingly cheerful attitude, then you should hire Brad Hensley. I worked with Brad for several years at R+K, and he was the absolute go-to on identity projects. Brad has created some of the strongest, stickiest, most deeply considered logos I’ve come across. Best of all, Brad was never precious about his work. He listened to our clients’ needs, provided tremendous options, and earned their trust. Hire him fast before someone else does.
Jim Myers
VP, Creative Director, Rhea + Kaiser Marketing Communications
Brad’s one of those rare talents. Not only can he deliver phenomenal graphic design work, but he can also bring you compelling conceptual ideas—all wrapped up into one extremely hard-working, positive-thinking, team-oriented person. I’ve seen him deliver big-time on everything from corporate identity programs to full-blown ad campaigns, with solutions that are consistently well thought-out, meticulously executed, and rigorously on strategy. Clients love him, because he goes all out to learn about their business and it shows in his work. I valued his great attitude and versatile skills tremendously, because he came up with the goods time after time, and I knew I could always count on him to come through.
