ILLUSTRATION:

Barbara Gleason is an illustrator by nature… she was drawing on the family walls at age two. She has used pencils, pens, watercolor, and especially loves using colored pencils and wax-based media. She jumped into the use of the computer, adopting its tools and efficiencies early in her career, and it has become a welcome tool in her illustration toolset. See her colored pencil/wax-based and pastel art on her fine art website, here

Inspired design and illustration doesn’t just leap from one’s hands…ideas begin in the brain and heart as Barbara mulls over what your inspired work is, and how she needs to work with your ideas and business goals. We are all creatively inspired at something, and Barbara learned how to let inspiration out of its box to slip into her brain and hands, so she can use her creative power to create illustration, design and artwork.

About the People we help…

Your business involves the way YOU create, develop, plan, inspire and work with your customers and clients. But probably, when it comes time to create a way to tell that story to the possible people who would hire you or buy from you, then it gets tricky. Sometimes people think they don’t have the funds to invest in a professional designer, and they try to create materials telling people about their business in a word processor program. They might then find that it will not "mind" or come out the way they imagine it being… or the printer they decide to try working with can’t print from their files.

Barbara Gleason creates illustration and design for small business owners and agencies who need to really make their marketing materials TALK to their potential customers so they can sell more products and services. They need to put food on their tables, feed their kitties and dogs and take care of themselves and their families.
