This branding was for an annual event called Legacy Sunday, where FBC Sudbury recognized a great figure from the past, and explored the impact of their legacy on us today. This particular year focused on the Anglican clergyman, abolitionist, and poet John Newton, most famous for writing the hymn “Amazing Grace”.
I wanted the branding to evoke a historical significance so i went with something that was inspired by the way that museums display art works, and classic magazine covers, letting this beautiful illustration by William Harvey do the heavy lifting. I used Adobe Photoshop to carve away some of the lowers portions of the drawing to creat this ghostly floating effect so that it almost dissolves into the canvas.
