About Us Get Hooked!

Our history disguised as a big fat lie…

Charfish Graphics, LLC was formed in the crucible of imagination. We are a mixture of moon dust and wax from the wings of faeries.

No, that’s rubbish. Not a word of it is true, except one. The way we really came to be is so unbelievably boring it’s actually visible from outer space:

We went down to the courthouse, signed some papers, and here we are.

Who we really are…

Well, first off, there’s no “we” really. It’s just me. I’m Charlie Pabst, a writer and graphic designer from Seattle, Washington.

I’m entirely self-taught as a designer. Anyone who’s been to school recently knows that isn’t entirely a bad thing. In fact, it’s not a bad thing at all, as it means most of what I’ve learned was learned on the job, doing real projects for real clients.

I come from an architectural background. Actually got all the way through school and several years of architecture practice before realizing architecture is less about design and more about city officials, building codes and a whole lot of rules.

So graphic and web design and my writing started to come to the foreground while architecture began to sink into the distance.

That brings us pretty much to present day. Now I write and design for my bread and I love every single second of it.

That’s me.

If you want to tell me about you, feel free to write any time. I love to hear from people, whether they’re clients or not, so go ahead and drop me a line.
