It is fitting that under Marlon's answer to the question 'WHAT?' I make the following note on terminology.
At first, we described Marlon as a graphic artist. However, many are of the view that a graphic artist is not a graphic designer and that Marlon is a graphic designer. In fact, both terms, which are interchangeable in our view as an "artist" by definition would include "design", seem inadequate to describe Marlon. We have now settled on the phrase design artist. But more on this debate later.
