The Portage Market

Cory Moore of Nova Soapia contacted me about a month ago with news of a outdoor market he was developing in Sydney Forks. He's hand built a variety of unique vendor spaces in the back yard of his beautiful, soap business. But he needed branding! That's where I came in. He was familiar with my work and had this concept about incorporating either a beaver or canoe in the logo to represent the trees and name sake. We worked through a variety of concepts and sketches and finally landed on his soap business, nestled in some pine trees behind a canoe with...

Louisbourg Market April 26th

Thursday, April 26th was the opening day of the Louisbourg Market, an artisan market which was organized for various cruise ship visits where the passengers will be visiting our community.  Unfortunately the morning of the market we discovered that the first cruise ship had to turn around due to rough waters preventing the ship from docking.

Moving back to Cape Breton was a step towards building a life 'back home' and that involved growing my community. And yesterday I got a little taste of it!With the branding for Louisbourg Market I built it around the iconic lighthouse - a landmark for the community. I wanted to focus on the town and less on the national park - but I...
