Taking Requests

July 21, 2009 11:20 am / by / 6 comments

I’m a huge fan of the pencil on paper. I always draw in between design projects, and often receive requests from friends and family, so I’d love to hear what ideas you might have. As part of my career as an artist/designer, I’m incorporating “drawings by request” on this blog. You tell me what you want to see, and I’ll post a drawing up. It’s a fun way to do more than just design, and I’d like you to be a part of it.

To request a drawing: visit my contact page, send me an email at karoleen [at] karoleendesign [dot] com, leave a comment on this post, or leave me a message on Twitter (karoleendesign).

You can view just the drawings of my blog (all numbered) at this link or by clicking on “#’d Drawings” in the Categories section. Check back often to see what comes up!

Ink, graphite, oil pastel, sharpie marker, carbon paper scratching… who knows what your drawing will end up looking like? Request, and find out.

    so i was just saying to my friends yesterday while we were chillin at the Tour de Eiffel— I told them how you drew everyone’s faces for senior year and i was thinking how cool it would be if you documented them and made an art piece with them – “an art piece from pieces of art” it would have been a great portfolio entry! we should round them up and scan them or something! Ill help!!!!!!

    anyway draw me something– its my bday! thanks =)

    ill post a link in my blog again for this… you should post me =) hehe

    That would be cool, but I think that process would take longer than it took to make this site.. which I can say, took a look time. :) It’s a good idea for future projects though! What’s your request?

    Madonna and Child, 1950′s style?

      I should know this. :) Any references as far as the 1950s are concerned?

    Hmmm.. Can you draw me a flying rhino? As in with wings. Yep, silly request, I know. I’m loving everything that is your website by the way. Keep it up, karoleen!
