Drawings and Tablet Drawings

July 13, 2010 By Karen Burton

I have been working on improving my tablet drawing abilities lately. There are so many options available with my wacom tablet. I have found that I have a steady hand in photoshop, but I can’t seem to control the settings very well in illustrator. Practice makes perfect I guess, but it can still be frustrating getting to perfect.
Here are a few drawings I am working on and have completed in Photoshop with my wacom tablet.

Starting with Tinkerbell! (she is my favorite so far)

NYCRC Camper Guidebook

June 30, 2010 By Karen Burton

As part of Poodles Doodles community service efforts, I recently created a camper guidebook for the New York City Rock Camp (NYCRC). I avidly support the arts in Murfreesboro and beyond as I feel that creativity among our youth is very important to balance out their lives. There are so many talented children and teens and they should be supported in their dreams of becoming artists, musicians, painters, and actors. Below is a sample of the guidebook I put together for this amazing camp.

Testimonial

I could not recommend Karen’s services more highly. She created our camper guidebook for New York City Rock Camp and not only was the finished product exactly what I had in mind, and creatively put together, she completed our job in an extremely timely, efficient, and professional manner. I can’t wait to work with her again and if you haven’t had the pleasure, I strongly recommend you do!

Please make a donation!

I enjoy being able to provide free services to a few non-profit organizations in the area that are geared for children and teens. YEAH! (Youth Empowerment through Arts and Humanities) in Murfreesboro is one. Being a small start-up it is difficult for me to afford this special service. A small donation can help me keep offering these and other services like it to these amazing organizations. All monies received will go directly towards supplies and technology needed to be able to provide these services. I plan to offer an Introductory to Graphic Design and Typesetting at YEAH! this coming summer and am looking to raise about $5000 to be able to provide a few supplies (paper, pica rulers, computer software (for YEAH!) and more). Thank you for your help and support!
