SlickFish Studios, LLC

A small digital design studio based near the working waterfront in Portland, Maine, SlickFish Studios has been building custom websites since 2002. The team works with clients from a range of sectors and locations — its portfolio includes camps, dental practices, arts organizations, packaging companies and design galleries — and is led by owner and lead creative Gordon Holman. Rather than templated solutions, the studio positions each project as a one-of-a-kind build tailored to the client's specific story and needs. The agency's core service is website design and development, covering content management systems, interactive portfolios, slideshow galleries, responsive layouts, e-commerce functionality and static informational sites, with SEO handled as part of the broader development process. Alongside web work, SlickFish designs logos intended to hold up across both digital and printed materials, aiming for clean, modern and distinct branding. The studio also offers animation services, ranging from simple GIFs to CSS/HTML5 animation, used to add movement and visual interest to client websites. Recent project work referenced on the studio's blog includes builds for an animal welfare organization, a nonprofit residence, and a regional healthcare provider, reflecting continued work across nonprofit, healthcare and community-focused clients.
