Process
Nina's process begins with a thorough understanding of your organization's mission, your core philosophy and the practical aspects of what your organization does on a day-to-day basis. She looks for everything that makes you unique including your geographical location, natural environment, the history of your organization and any icons your organization already uses. She searches for symbols that may hold meaning for your organization or symbols that can speak to your beliefs and goals.

In order to understand the practical aspects of your recognition needs, a list of questions about budget parameters, levels of giving, potential locations for the project, design criteria, among others, is sent to you. If applicable Nina will interact with the architect and designers so the donor recognition art can be integrated within the architectural design.
Her first designs are simple sketches that allow for an immediate dialogue. Once a mutual direction is agreed upon she develops a CAD (computer aided design) drawing that can be manipulated and refined until a final design is reached. Color can be added with Photoshop or by printing the design on watercolor paper. This image can be reproduced and used as part of your fundraising campaign as a mailer or shared through your newsletter.
If your organization is seeking an individual work of art to be reproduced as a recognition object, Nina will work will you to develop a custom-designed piece that can be reproduced in a cost effective manner.
