BRAND IDENTY DESIGN
Strategic, visual systems built to support real businesses.
Each project begins with direction and ends with a cohesive identity that can be used consistently.
A brand that balances professionalism and tradition with a touch of creativity and whimsy, while letting the photographs shine.
GENEVIEVE HUBA PHOTOGRAPHY
A brand that feels quiet but assured, designed to hold space rather than compete for attention.
TEMPLE HONEY HEALING
not all designers draw
LETTERING + ILLUSTRATION
Custom lettering and illustration add a human element that can’t be replicated with templates or stock assets. This work creates distinction, and allows for details that are specific, expressive, and exclusively unique rather than pulled from a library.

FROM THE ART STUDIO
Original acrylic + mixed media work focused on exploration of color, texture, and movement.
These are part of my daily analog art practice rooted in consistency and expansion. See more and follow along on my instagram.
MEET ML
I'm mary laurel,
an artist, designer , and life-long creative who believes that heart led work deserves thoughtful design.
My creative path began with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and has continued through years of painting, drawing, hand lettering, and design across multiple industries. Over the past fifteen years I’ve developed a deep love for creative problem solving and an artist’s eye that explores, refines, and adjusts until everything feels just right.
Today I bring that same perspective to heart led brands, helping founders translate their passion and values into visual identities that feel authentic, expressive, and thoughtfully crafted.
