ABOUT TINA POE


I live in Austin, Texas with my storyboard artist and illustrator husband David Poe and our furry child Mojito, creating illustrations, art directing, designing, and attempting to garden.

I might be a workaholic, because along side freelance illustrating, I keep busy running a small design shop called Creative Bees Design Studio, offering art direction, web design, and print design services.

David and I also created and run a unique illustrated portrait company called Red Tie Studios™. Go check it out!

You can find me on Facebook, become a fan of Tina Poe Illustration, and Twitter, as well as tons of other networking sites around the web.

See you around!

They live in a world of possibilities where they see all sorts challenges to be surmounted, and they want to be the ones responsible for surmounting them. They have a drive for leadership, which is well-served by their quickness to grasp complexities, their ability to absorb a large amount of impersonal information, and their quick and decisive judgments.”
