I've never asked for any sort of recognition but I'd be lying to you if I didn't find it very cool to get noticed once in a while for my hard work and for this reason I'm very proud and honored to have been awarded my Second Bel-Art's Excellence Award! Considering only 3 out of every ten websites judged get this award and this being my 2nd award from this wonderful art community; the first having been awarded to me in 2006, I would just like to say thank you and let everyone know this is just another reason to come to Birdman's Designs for your art, graphic design & website design needs!

Bel Art Web Project Excellence Award
Are you looking for someone who can design a logo for your business, update or build a website, design a letterhead? Or perhaps you would like a beautiful wildlife, Egyptian or fantasy painting or design for a special gift? Are you tired of businesses & freelancers who respond to your request with an automated message or take several days to return a call or email?
If so, then you have found just SOME of the many reasons to go with Birdman's Designs for all your art or design project needs. My name's Mike Sexton, owner of Birdman's Designs in Northeastern Kansas, USA. I'm a graphic designer, web designer & artist who specializes in many different areas from creating original paintings to designing websites for personal and business needs.
For those of you who are needing work done for your business, Birdman's Designs is able to design just the right items for your needs whether it's for promotional gifts, website design or a business logo and letterhead if that is what you’re looking for, so as you can see, Birdman's Designs has experience in many areas of graphic design/digital painting and I will bring your personal or business project ideas to life! Birdman's Designs provides an upfront quote when told what you're needing. All details are laid out for you in the very beginning so there aren’t any surprises. Birdman's Designs does its absolute best to provide excellent quality work for all of your personal & professional needs. When you contact me you won't be subjected to another automated email message or a list of automated choices if you call me; what you will get is a timely response with an ACTUAL email message or a live voice when you call. I invite you to check out my portfolio to see a sample of my work. See my FAQ page to see my business hours.
I have experience in several different areas so my business is more than just one dimensional like you'll find with so many others. For those of you who are needing something personal done I design custom t-shirts, sweaters, caps, mouse pads, pillows and so much more. I can also edit your photos including older photos that you really love into a beautiful watercolor print that will give the picture new life as well as being able to touch up and edit your photos if they've been damaged somehow and you don't want to part with them; I can make them look as good and even better than the originals! So, instead of driving to the local photo mat place or driving all over town looking for a gift for someone or some new clothes for yourself & your family, why not save the cost of the gasoline, considering how expensive it is, and shop at one of my online stores in the comfort of your own home; the money you save on gasoline alone will save you quite a bit of money and headaches. Also, when you give a special watercolor print as a birthday gift, you're showing your loved ones that you took the time to get something that really means a lot to that person and they'll treasure it all the more!
Judy Hill, director of the Tuscaloosa Animal Shelter has this to say regarding the work I've done for her website- "Thank you so much for your great work! Everything looks great, and you really stay on top of things, and make sure that your work is high quality. It is a pleasure to be associated with such a professional!"
If you're looking for a terrific gift and want something fresh and different check out my wonderful paintings as well as the terrific one-of-a-kind gifts that I have for sale that feature my painted work as well as many awesome new designs in such categories as lions, tigers, eagles, penguins as well as mythological creatures like the Phoenix or dragons. I also am an avid lover of ancient Egyptian art so you'll find many such gifts and paintings available as well with such well known gods and goddesses as Anubis, Horus, Sekhmet and many more as well as a few that detail the more historical aspects of their culture. I have many categories that I paint in as well as design gifts in so do check out my online stores to get an idea and place your order for yourself as well as gifts for those you love! My paintings would make a cool gift for someone who's moved into a new place; a Phoenix or maybe a tiger painting would look terrific on your college student's walls. Grab my hot NEW soccer shirts for those on your birthday list so they'll be ready to cheer on their favorite country during the friendly matches as countries get in a bit more practice for the World Cup event this summer!

In March 2009 I had the opportunity to participate in an online artist interview with a wonderful lady named Beth Edwards; she really has some terrific and thought provoking questions she asks artists & I am truly honored to be able to have my interview featured at her site. You may read the entire interview and get to know a bit more about me as a person and as an artist at this address.
