Graphics Development
Know Him, Inc. develops the highest quality graphic designs with messages that consistently honor God and His Kingdom.
Our talented staff is headed by Cyndi Nobriga, Director of Product Development, who designs and coordinates much of what ends up on store shelves.
Cyndi's varied background includes ten years in graphic art with a depth of experience in t-shirt design, as well as freelance design experience creating corporate identity brochures and media material. Her sense of graphic design is rooted in a sincere devotion and sensitivity to God's direction.
"I'll pray about a design first," Cyndi said. "What follows is usually a combination of planning and intuition as it progresses. The designs that come together easily are usually the best. Those are the ones that I'm more confident come from God."
Cyndi works closely with Doug McKenna, President of Know Him, constructing the graphic look and feel that complements a message being developed. "We try to create simple designs and messages with a personal meaning," Cyndi added. "Doug and I will go back and forth on an idea until we come to a consensus. When we finally commit to a design, it's because we're confident about it's quality and potential impact."
When evaluating submissions by professional artists, Cyndi searches for artwork that conveys a strong sense of art and design. "For Know Him, it also needs to be something that fits into our product line, is subtle in nature, has contemporary style, and is consistent with the type of designs that are currently in the aparrel market."
"A lot of people send slogans. We're really focused on the singular message of knowing God intimately, and not quite so much on the general message of being a Christian. We want something that's conventional but still slightly on the edge. It's important that we're very contemporary but we do it in a more subtle sort of way," she said.
Know Him, Inc. encourages professional submittals and pays a royalty to the concept originator for each shirt sold. Upon acceptance, the design creator will sign an agreement allowing Know Him to use their design under the terms and conditions outlined. Original artwork is accepted in color hard copy or on a Macintosh formatted disk in an eps file format.
Please send all questions or design submissions to designs@KnowHim.com.
