Karen Snave… Illustrator, Graphic Designer
I have been illustrating and designing professionally since 1984.
I studied Fine Art at the Chelsea School of Art in London
and graduated from the American Academy of Art in Chicago with a
BFA. I excel in both traditional and digital art, and am proficient in
Photoshop, Illustrator and Flash. I am easy to work with, understand
what a deadline means and, most importantly, love what I do.
I have illustrated for a number of game developers,
publishers, ad agencies, giftware manufacturers,
corporations both large and small, and am able to adapt
my style to suit the needs of my clients. Highly experienced
with branded products, I have the ability to retain the
integrity of license yet create inspired new directions.
Great design can communicate your message,
get you noticed and bring in new business.
I listen to my clients and translate their goals
into strong design and imagery and make magic happen!
