Creative Vision. Artfully Engineered.

I craft thoughtful, high-impact digital experiences for businesses and creatives—where design meets strategy, and creativity drives results.

Let's build something with purpose.

Partnering with you.

I’m Mike Tapia—designer, illustrator, developer, and digital strategist with 20+ years of experience helping brands and creatives bring big ideas to life online. Whether I’m sketching in a studio or leading a dev project, I thrive at the intersection of craft and clarity.

A creative workspace with digital art tools and sketches.

Exceptional creativity and strategy combined.

GET IN TOUCH

For over a decade, I worked at an in-house team in an oil and gas company, creating award-winning work for a broad range of product lines across industries.

I have years of experience bringing imaginative concepts, strategies, and campaigns from the online/digital environment to the legal industry.

I am also the creator behind Brush & Bytes—a space for empowering artists in the digital world and Founder of OnceDivided—your partner for marketing and creative services.

What I Bring to the Table

From solo artists to growing teams, I deliver handcrafted solutions that look beautiful and perform even better.

DEVELOPMENT

As an experienced team lead, I provide guidance and direction to development teams to ensure they produce outstanding work. My objective is to strike a balance between maintaining websites, developing architectures, and front-end development. To stay focused, I rely on a product strategy that informs us of what to build and why we should build it.

STRATEGY

I help you identify customer problems, generate solutions, and validate ideas, leading to confident business decisions and successful campaign development.

DESIGN

I design branding assets that connect customer needs with business goals in a meaningful way. I create landing pages, emails, marketing collateral, and advertising using UX and UI design to make products and services come to life.

CREATIVE

With a background in art I am capable of providing illustration work with experience in print & merch design along with creating memorable brand identities.
