I am Kelly Ann Raver, from Upstate New York (think cows, not sky scrapers.) My education came from attending undergrad at Sage College of Albany for my BFA in Graphic and Media Design and then going to  Southern New Hampshire University for my Masters in Marketing.  I have 10 years of experience, and it is the reason my work is so refined.
I not only have my own freelance business doing design and illustrstion, but my pastel fine art work  has become extremely successful, too and has made a name for myself locally.  When I was starting out there was an article in Entrepreneur Magazine about how nervous I was as a new artist and designer. See article:
 I have proven to endure, and my creativity overflows with a lot of passion.
My portfolio has a lot of creative things. I borrow a lot of styles from throughout Art History and from designs found in nature. I also have a style and niche of my own. I have a great eye for color, detail and space.   
________________________________________________________________________________
I am an educated and experienced professional and charge professional rates for my services. I do not do work "for my portfolio." I do work as a person who has a high level of education and 10 years of experience. 
I WILL NOT be doing any work for anyone without either a video chat or a telephone chat to get to meet you, no exceptions. You will actually need to speak with me.  I  will also not be doing work without a written contract and a non-refundable deposit.
Also, I do not sell my art off of this site. Please go to Etsy to purchase my items and prints ( link is in footer). I cannot help you if you do not use Etsy, or do not want to use Etsy. I will not make a private sale of my items. I am not set up for retail, so please do not ask. 
Also.....
I have had a history of people filling out my contact form for various scams, to try to sell me services, to sell me followers, to get me to sell my work for NFTs, to tell me I inherited some prince's money from some foreign country, and for a lot of  other non-design purposes for which I will not be replying to.  If you contact me, I will be doing my homework about your validity. If I find no information about you, or a valid business online, I  will not be responding to you. ( I will check things like LinkedIn under your business name, your location, and see how long you have had your LinkedIn profile.)  And, if you sound like a Bot if I do reply, I am gone. Just the heads up, because I do not have time for any BS.
