“I had been wanting a webpage for quite a while, but didn't know how it should look. To say that I have no creative ability is the understatement of a lifetime. Then I met Larissa. She met with me, asked some questions, shot some pictures, then promptly turned out a fabulous website. Her knowledge and skills are unmatched. Two thumbs up!!

“Just want to make available my experience with Creative Express. I produce Academic Planners for KU, KSU and both high schools in Lawrence, KS. This past late spring, my creative department developed a log jam that was slowing the production process. I met with Larissa to inquire about any assistance she might provide. I couldn't have been more satisfied with her commitment to help me. It's almost as if she was working for me. I didn't have to really explain much about our creative and production process as Larissa already had that knowledge base. As a business owner, it can be difficult to find "partners" that understand exactly what your needs are AND be willing to work toward that end. Creative Express was a pleasure to work with.

Thomas Fliger, Backpack Publications

“Larissa at Creative Express Graphic Design Studio has forever changed my business by designing and producing a classy, eye-catching new logo and business cards that I am proud to give out. My website that she designed has already brought me new business in a few short weeks and is keeping me high on the internet listing of quality painters in Lawrence.”

Kathy Bechtel, Color My World Painting & Countertop Resurfacing

“Working with Larissa was a pleasure both personal and professional. She was able to take our ideas and transfer them to our website along with truely understanding our product. She is always just a phone call away to add or help us with our site. We would recommend her highly and look forward to working with her in the future.”

“Larissa Barbee has been designing and producing the Lawrence Free State High School Sports program for many years. I have been fortunate to work with her for the last three years and am impressed with her work. She guided me through the production process when I was new and will be doing that again next year when the next new parent volunteer comes on board and always with a smile! She consistently does an excellent job and creates beautiful, quality products. Larissa is wonderful to work with and always come through to meet any deadline. She is more than willing to lend a helping hand and share her talents with others. I encourage anyone with graphic design needs to contact Larissa – you won’t be disappointed.”

Larissa is a creative problem-solver with a complete knowledge of her craft.”

“Larissa has done various graphic design projects for me and the results have been outstanding. Her work gets the job done at a budget friendly price. I decided to have her design a direct mail piece for me very similar to ones I've done in the past. The response rate on that piece was 800% higher than previous pieces. The postcard was attractive, attention grabbing, and was well received.”

Dave Greenbaum, Doctor Dave
