Creative Collaborations

As a consultant to churches and other organizations, I encourage strategic, creative thinking about the future. One of the keys to organizational (re)development is clarity of purpose or mission. I work with leaders to simplify their mission statement to a key phrase and then to connect it with a visual image. By using this combination in a variety of ways, people begin to respond to it as the identifying feature of the organization. Not only does this bring energy and renewed vision to those belonging to the system; it heightens public awareness and interest.

A few churches and hospitals in the Episcopal Diocese of New York are beginning to explore ways to use one of my designs as a logo to go alone their mission. Connecting the visual with a written phrase, word or scriptural passage, the organizations will then use it creatively throughout the organization: on stationery, note cards, bookmarks, postcards, t-shirts, banners, business cards, mugs, tote bags, etc. Please inquire about the fee structure to obtain permission to use one of the designs for your marketing strategy. We'd like to highlight on our website your creative use of The Blessing Cup logos.
