This beautiful logo was designed by artist, and friend, Linda Warner Constantino. Linda is a painter and illustrator. She is passionate about plein air painting in oils and botanical illustration of fruits and vegetables watercolors. Before her current teaching position in the illustration department at SCAD she illustrated and designed the feature pages for the Island Packet. Her favorite was always the food section.
Linda derives further inspiration from her yearly painting workshops in Tuscany held at a working organic farm in Tuscany called Spannocchia. She translates her love of garden, food, and the Italian lifestyle of living close to the land into her art.
She has recently formed a company called Linadona Botanica with her sister to create designs and illustrations inspired by nature that are suitable for art licensing.
An interesting note is that Linda's cousin is the restauranteur and author,Alice Waters, who is renowned as the founder of sustainable food in the world market.
