Nancy Gebhart

Brand Identity

Nancy Gebhart is an educator, curator, and advocate based in the Midwest, centering her work on the intersection of art and social justice.

Her brand identity is designed to reflect core values of trust, advocacy, thoughtfulness, and peace. A calming palette of blues and neutrals forms the foundation of the visual identity, paired with a custom script wordmark that conveys personality and an intimate invitation to collaborate. Hand-drawn illustrations with analog textures are integrated across digital (web banners) and print materials (postcards, business cards). Shapes are individually crafted to create a brand that relishes in the process, not perfection.

These assets will be shared to initiate collaboration and evoke themes of love, gratitude, and community care.
