We won an award!

Neographics is one of the nation’s largest regional graphic communications contests in which graphic arts, packaging, converting, design and publishing excellence is selected and showcased.

This year we participated in a wonderful project with The Standard Group. The Standard Group is a premier print management and marketing logistics company whose award-winning works with digital and print communication for many Fortune 500 companies.

We were honored to be asked to help design, illustrate and be interviewed in a client engagement project called “The Artist Journey”. Donna McCafferty spent hours conceptually thinking of how a painting about peace could be integrated to a Seasonal Poster to give to clients for the holidays that would send a lasting message.

“I wanted my painting to be about the beauty of the natural peace we have in our lives - to focus on the goodness and not the bad news we currently face every day.” In thinking about her painting she wanted to “hold onto the peace concept” The title of her 24” X 30” oil on canvas finished work is titled “Holding on to Peace”

Along with the painting, McCafferty was interviewed:
