Megan Ferrell portfolio about the artist contact

Megan Ferrell is an award winning art director and graphic designer with over 20 years experience in the commercial art world. She is a graduate of the prestigious Parsons School of Design in New York. Megan specializes in advertising, marketing/brand development, photography and collateral/print design.

Art has been a lifelong pursuit for Megan. She has won numerous awards and recognition for her artwork, from childhood to the present. Born in Nutley, NJ, (famous for being the childhood home of Martha Stewart) she later moved to Darien, CT, where she has lived most of her life. She has been a resident of Silvermine for the last five years.

Megan decided to concentrate on graphic design while at Parsons. There she studied under many of the great designers in the industry including Milton Glaser, Henry Wolf and Seymour Chwast. After graduation, Megan held various positions in the corporate world in New York City, including group creative director for a division of CMP Media, and as a creative services director for AIG. She finally decided to strike out on her own, allowing her to pursue a wider variety of work in design. As a result, Communication Ink. was founded by Megan twelve years ago, and today continues to be a successful, award winning design firm. Past and present clients include Deutsche Bank, Alcatel-Lucent, Microsoft, The America's Cup Challenge, CMP Media and McGraw-Hill.

This past year, Megan launched a new branch of business under the name Extreme Studio, with renowned illustrator Roy Wiemann, who is based in New York City. Extreme Studio recently completed a new brand of identity and logo for the United States Sailing Team.

Megan is a member of the NY Art Directors Club and also a board member of the Norwalk Association of Silvermine Homeowners (NASH). She hopes to focus more on fine art, film and photography in the coming year. She is constantly inspired by the Silvermine Community and the incredible beauty of the area.
