Creative director/Illustrator/Artist

I am a highly creative art director with 16+ years marketing and advertising agency experience. I have enhanced the effectiveness of my client's marketing communications, penetrate new markets for them and opened up profitable opportunities by implementing new marketing techniques and creating collateral that works. Having been employed by fortune 500 companies in the past, I now enjoy working with businesses big and small as full-time freelancer. With my formal education, a degree in graphic design/marketing communication and a masters degree in fine art, I also enjoy creating illustrations for children's books, and have been commissioned for portrait and corporate paintings, as well as technical/medical & architectural renderings. With my detailed, colorful and realistic illustration style I have created many children books and other artworks that are highly successful and I am very proud of. I am a published children's book illustrator and award-winning fine artist with many top-selling books already illustrated and published or picked up by major publishing companies. I also work on commission to create watercolor and acrylic/oil portraits, both people and pets and with my experience, I can help you create the perfect gift. Please contact me for painting sizes and time frame.

"This was the best experience. Gabi quickly completed my children's book and it is wonderful. I have shown it to my family, friends and co-workers and they cannot wait to buy the book and cannot wait to see the other books I am creating. I have already shared my ideas with Gabi and we are planning the next two books already. She was able to make my imagination come alive on the page. Not only did she illustrate the book, she checked my punctuation and provided information and expertise on how to publish the book. She is very communicative and insightful with a quick response time. My career is leading consumer experiences and this experience was seamless and perfect,"

"I would not recommend anyone work with this freelancer unless you are ok with breaking copyright laws and ignoring intellectual property licenses. Look elsewhere if you want a freelancer to create original work (created uniquely for you). I paid her for original illustrations for a children’s book that I wanted to publish and sell. She blatantly stole cartoon characters from various sites around the web and did not obtain the proper licenses. She also tried to pass off a Disney character fan art as her own original work. She refused to acknowledge that she was doing this and would not offer a refund despite not following through with our contract. I explained all this to her and gave her resources explaining copyright law in the US, but she still ignored it (or did not understand it). I would not recommend anyone hire her."

"She worked diligently and was open for suggestions. Even when I wasn’t sold on the cover, she to my feed back and came back with a better cover. I’m very happy with my cover."
