We love the team because they’re locals so they understand the region, and also because they have been with us for more than a decade on our brand journey, so they really get who we are as a company and what we stand for. The work they did for our recent rebranding is beautiful, giving us a fresh feel while retaining the good old fashioned values that we stand for as an agricultural business. They worked closely with us all through the process, with Anna’s dedication to details and delivery meaning we always were able to meet our promotional deadlines.

"Troy and I wanted to say a huge THANK YOU; because quite simply the new look 'Action Electrical Queensland' is better than ever expected. We couldn't have imagined a better result; you were able to design exactly what we wanted to take our business to the next level. You were able to design a modern yet corporate branding concept that now allows us to showcase our professional business. The feedback from our friends, family and clients has been exceptional and we have been very happy to tell everyone exactly who did all the hard work. (And how much pressure they were under to do it.) It was an absolute pleasure working with both of you; however we still find it hard to believe that nothing was a problem; short time frames and last minute changes included. I have no doubt that Black Canvas will continue to grow and will become one of Toowoomba's premier branding specialists."

Shea & Troy Distant

Their graphics and branding help simplify sustainability messaging, making it easier to understand. This contributes to clearer communication which ultimately helps the cotton industry, its customers and other stakeholders make more informed sustainability decisions to benefit agriculture, nature and society."

As a regionally based team, Black Canvas have a strong understanding of the agricultural industry in which CCA operates and this is continually reflected in the relevance of their creativity and design. Combined with their timely delivery, these factors enable CCA to outsource its multimedia design needs with confidence.”

Anne & I would like to say a big thank you to Anna, Kristy & the team at Black Canvas. We challenged them to come up with a logo & full branding concept for our new business. The results were truly outstanding. They were attentive, listened to our ideas & absolutely nailed the brief that was provided to them. It’s not very often these days that you get to deal with a company that does what it says it is going to do in such a timely & professional manner. They are true professionals in their field & we consider Black Canvas a very important part of our team. We have since commissioned them to carry out the next stage of our branding & graphics requirements. We have no hesitation in recommending Anna, Kristy & the team at Black Canvas."
