I am an illustrator, graphic novelist, and book designer. I love to collaborate with clients to come up with extraordinary and highly effective, deeply communicative images. My technical proficiency is excellent as are my communication skills, so working with me is a pleasure. I believe in having fun, as well as getting the job done! I meet deadlines well, and most clients are long term; they keep coming back.

Here is an endorsement from a very satisfied client:

"Art is more than technique. It needs to come to life. And through the perfect combination of exemplary technical skills and the uncanny ability to understand and draw characters and story precisely out of written text, Maureen Burdock breathes life into her art."

My skills include:

* Adobe Photoshop
* Adobe Illustrator
* Adobe InDesign
* Drawing
* Graphic Novel Creation
* Painting
* Typography

Industry Experience:

I have been in business for myself, and winning awards for over 10 years now. I have experience in the following: non-profit, social sector, retail, wholesale, education, federal, state, local governments, media, advertising, publishing, and entertainment.

Question and answer

Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A. Hire only the best. Check to make sure the provider has experience in the industry and a solid skillset. A skilled, seasoned service provider can cost a little more up front but save you a ton of money down the road, because they aren't charging you to learn on the job. Save yourself frustration and have an awesome experience, instead!

Q. If you were a customer, what do you wish you knew about your trade? Any inside secrets to share?

A. A great illustrator is more than a technician and more than an artist. She or he knows how to interpret your story or idea, translate it into a visual language, and use technical expertise to put the message out into the world smoothly, efficiently, and looking fantastic!

Q. What questions should a consumer ask to hire the right service professional?

A. How many years of experience do you have?
Have you worked on projects similar to the one I need help with?
Do you have references or endorsements?
May I see your web site and/or samples of previous work?
