I recommend John Potter and hope you will visit his very interesting website and have a look around. You might want him for your next business project.

Oil Painting

Testimonial: I purchased one of John Potters great paintings a couple of years ago. This oil on canvas picture is a large, half life-sized image of an Astronaut back in the payload bay of the Space Shuttle performing a repair on the Hubble Space Telescope. I work as an engineer in a Space Suit lab in Houston Texas, and when I saw this work I was blown away by its attention to accuracy. Potters style trends to relatively substantial brush strokes, but somehow the final product seems very, very detailed. The colors he uses are extremely faithful representations of the scene. From a respectful viewing distance, the painting looks photo realistic, but the viewer knows full well its obviously not a photograph, but the results from the labored efforts of a master artist. I cannot express how satisfied I am with this particular image.

FLAMINGO GARDENS

Flamingo Gardens was one of the first organizations to work with Escape Key Graphics when the studio began operating full time, and it remains a particularly meaningful client relationship. Known to many South Florida residents as a pleasant place to spend an afternoon, Flamingo Gardens is much more than a botanical attraction. It is also a respected wildlife sanctuary that provides permanent care for injured and non releasable native animals. The property is home to the largest collection of Florida native wildlife, along with beautifully maintained gardens that highlight the state’s natural heritage.

Escape Key Graphics created the original illustrated map for Flamingo Gardens in 2010, which has served as the primary orientation tool for guests ever since. Over the years, the map has been revised and redesigned to reflect changes to the property and improve clarity for visitors. It continues to be used as a printed handout and as a key marketing asset on the organization’s website. In addition to the map, illustrated brochures and a rack card were also designed to support guest engagement and on site communication. This long standing collaboration reflects a shared commitment to education, conservation, and high quality visitor experience.

INFORMA

Informa is a London based global events company that produces several major boat shows each year, including the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, widely recognized as the largest boat show in the world. In addition to event production, Informa provides a full range of services such as electrical infrastructure, catering, and convention support. Some of these boat shows were originally managed by Show Management, The Newport International Boat Show and NMMA, which have been acquired by Informa. Escape Key Graphics has worked with all of these organizations, providing continuity and deep familiarity with the shows and their venues.

The first boat show map created by Escape Key Graphics was produced in 2011 for Show Management and was for the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show. Since that initial project, the studio has created a wide range of illustrated maps, signage designs, and supporting graphics for multiple boat shows each year. This ongoing collaboration has included program cover illustrations and page layout, detailed renderings for future show planning, and visual assets used across print, digital, and on site applications. The long term relationship reflects a consistent ability to deliver clear, accurate, and visually engaging graphics for some of the most complex marine events in the world.

THE WILD ANIMAL SANCTUARY

The Wild Animal Sanctuary, located in Keenesburg, Colorado, is a highly respected nonprofit organization devoted to rescuing animals from abusive and neglectful captive situations. The sanctuary provides lifelong care within expansive, natural habitats where animals can roam freely and live alongside others of their own species. Its work plays an important role in animal welfare, conservation, and public education, offering visitors an experience that is both informative and deeply meaningful.

Escape Key Graphics created multiple illustrated maps for The Wild Animal Sanctuary to support guest orientation and visitor experience. These maps are used on site and as part of the sanctuary’s online marketing, helping communicate the scale, layout, and mission of the property. Contributing to projects that support such impactful work has been especially rewarding, and the maps continue to serve as valuable tools for both education and outreach.
