The private school Dawson School organises an annual summer academic programme for high-achieving elementary school students (ages 11-13) that follows a different theme each year. In 2015, a design competition with the theme "ON THE MOVE! Transportation, Globalization, and Innovation" was launched on the 99designs platform. They wanted a simple, clear poster, unencumbered by various elements and visual information, yet attractive to children of that age. I decided to play with vector illustrations that will look colourful and bright but in a calm harmony. I won that competition. In 2016, the competition was organised again, with the theme "Innovation & Impact: Change Through Creativity." I won that time, too. When they started the competition again in 2017, and my poster was again the most liked by their students in internal polls, they declared my victory and, in the following years, collaborated directly with me through 1-to-1 projects. We've just finished our 11th poster. :)

Wow! Martina was extremely capable, creative, accommodating and patient with our numerous edits. From the start of our signage contest, her concepts stood out from the rest, and my target audience chose her work hands down. She worked with us until we were completely satisfied, and she was consistently professional (responding to our emails promptly) and very easy to work with. I highly recommend her as an artist and as a professional!
