   Karen Shelby
   
   Karen Shelby is a graphic designer with an outdoor flair. Her love of the outdoors, wild game cooking, gardening, flyfishing and birding blended with her training and education as a designer have resulted in a home based business she shares with her designer/cartoonist/writer husband Cliff.
   
   Born and raised in Arkansas, she holds a B.F.A. degree in fine art with an emphasis on graphic design. While in college at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK, she minored in advertising/public relations to help offset her design degree with practical applications.
   
   Since graduating college in 1983, Karen has pursued several careers throughout the southern U.S. and overseas, to include, computer graphic designer/illustrator, instructor for ad copy and layout at the University level, clothing designer/ entrepreneur, free-lance graphic designer, traffic/production manager for advertising agencies, illustrator for an Army Training Resources Center in the European theatre, as well as a production artist for a daily newspaper.
   
   Karen has won numerous awards for excellence in advertising design over the course of her career and, along with husband Cliff, was most recently awarded second place in the Best Industry Public Relations category for their "Shimano Water Weigh-In System" 28 page brochure, produced for Shimano Canada.
