Here’s what people are saying about
Laura Mason and LauraBorealis Productions:
“In my twenty-six years at Zondervan, Laura Mason is among the very finest graphic artists/designers who have worked for the company. Whatever the project, I will promise that you will be impressed and satisfied with her work. I’m constantly amazed at her ability to communicate even the smallest shades of meaning with simple graphic elements. Her sense of composition, color, placement, and balance are all exceptional. She has the ability to instantly grasp the essentials of a project, isolate the challenges, and come up with designs that will blow you away. Laura is an all-around professional and you would be fortunate to have her work on your projects.”
