In 2019, Mills Community Support, a long-standing community non-profit agency that fosters caring, strong and inclusive communities, proceeded with a rebranding to become Carebridge Community Support. Once the name had been decided, Sumack Loft was approached to design an identity that would help position the organization as a leader in its field and communicate their mission clearly — a caring, person-centred agency.

Rosemary and John were married summer 2019 and approached Sumack Loft early in the year to design a logo of their names for the wedding. They provided a rough hand drawn doodle of a bow and arrow as inspiration with a heart incorporated into the design. We selected a beautiful script typeface for their names, and a charming custom illustration was developed for the heart, bow, and arrow.

Eko Solar Engine: Art direction and design of illustration/infographic showing the component parts of the passive house building solution offered at EkoBuilt. A passive house is powered by the sun and requires no furnace, allowing its residents to live off grid if required, thus the illustration has been designed in such a way as to convey a wealth of information in a quick and simple way.

Concept packaging produced last year for an international award-winning chocolate maker in the region.

The highly successful Thanksgiving studio tour in the Almonte and Clayton area keeps expanding in scope.

Crooked Mile Brewing Company Craft Beer Labels: Crow’s Castle. Art direction, design, and illustration for a microbrewery in Almonte, Ontario. Crooked Mile commissioned me to create illustrations for each of their flagship beers based on vistas the owners fell in love with during a walking tour in the UK. Crow’s Castle is a Welsh Best Bitter featuring the “Dinas Bran”, or Crow’s Castle, sitting atop a tall hill in Wales, with the requisite murder of crows wheeling and soaring all around.

A passionate and intuitive tarot reader and reiki practitioner was looking for a logo and website to offer readings to a larger audience.
