Black Swamp Conservancy’s 2018 Bluegrass & Green Acres Fundraiser illustration
M.e. puff design was commissioned by Black Swamp Conservancy to create the art piece for their annual fundraiser to be held in the spring of 2018. In past years the artwork has featured animals sometimes representing the band that would be playing at the event. This year artwork was created that depicts the swamp restoration work that Black Swamp is doing in and around Northwest Ohio. The artwork shows the characteristics of the waterways that are restored along with the grasses, dead materials and trees that are planted to recreate this habitat. A vernal pool and an oxbow were also added to give the viewer even more insight into the process
The Collaborative’s Recruiting Poster
The direction for this piece was to create a main piece of art/appealing graphic that would dominate the poster and attract potential talent to the firm. The graphic on the poster was inspired by Le Corbusier’s Ronchamp. The combination of the geometric pattern from this inspiration along with the topographic line art from both of The Collaborative’s office locations in Toledo & Ann Arbor creates this bold graphic. This along with a simple color scheme and message makes the poster stand out in the crowd.

Black Swamp Conservancy’s map of The Great Black Swamp
The Black Swamp Conservancy needed a high resolution map of the original boundaries of The Great Black Swamp area. They wanted a hand-drawn illustration that included features of the area, some labeling of bodies of waters and towns along with a few illustrations of wild life from the past and present. I took all of these requirements and illustrated an ink drawing of the area.
