A lifetime of Art
Rob Diebold is a Senior Graphic Designer from Northern California with over 20 year experience. He is the owner of Design Sonoma, a home studio which he opened in 2005. He creates design, photography, music, literature, and fine arts. His first album, Time Water, was released in 2012 under the band name of Manbird Experiment.
Rob graduated from SRJC’s nationally acclaimed three year Graphic Design Program in 1997. During his second semester of college his work earned him a prestigious SADIES student award. He interned at Anchor & Acorn Press where he learned the fine and nearly lost art of letterpress printing and linotype operation.
After college, Rob served as Art Director for seven years in the architectural and environmental graphics field where he designed signage and way-finding systems for many of the major health care and educational institutions in the region.
Rob is also a master falconer and loves to fly his Harris’s hawks across the beautiful fields and buttes of Northern California. He loves camping, beach combing, and creating art in nature such as towers of balancing rocks and Native American themed totems and symbols.
