Hello

Welcome! I am Kathy McGraw of KMG, a graphic designer, east coast gal transplanted to beautiful southern California/ San Diego. This is some of what inspires me. I like to think of it as a mix of west coast bohemian and east coast folk meets Mumbai meets Paris. I'm drawn to eclectic hand done looks with lots of prints and texture, particularly Indian prints and French style. I love branding, packaging, hand lettering, hand printed designs, block printing, screen printing, letterpress and illustration...

MY WORK: Poster for Haiti Poster Project

My poster design: "HANDS OF HOPEfor the Haiti Poster Project is up to $50. It started at $25, so that means it must be selling! Yeah! Yippee!!! It says the media is digital, but I hand silkscreened/printed it on archival 140lb coldpressed watercolor paper... The Haiti Poster Project is a collaboration of artists and designers from around the world, benefitting victims of the earthquake in Haiti...

ABOUT THE POSTER: The poster was inspired by the unwavering faith and hope of the Haitian people in the face of unimaginable hardship. The hands are raised up in supplication - and the prayers are being answered in a shower of hope. The texture at the bottom is a representation of the cracked ground of Port-au-Prince.
