Meet Laura
Every business has a story, and it is my great pleasure to help each one tell theirs.
One of the highlights of my job is working with my clients. They are the owners, founders, and key players in their businesses. They care more about their business than anyone else, making them the best partner. Through them, I learn what their ‘work world’ is like, what their customers need, and the goals for their business’s visual identity and digital functionality. Then I get to bring this vision to life to help them connect to their customers.

Client testimonials
“I started working with Laura and Blue Canvas in 2015 when I began my tenure as Executive Director at Chicago Youth Programs. One of my first endeavors was to revamp the organization’s website and I had no idea where to start. A board member connected me to Laura and we’ve been partnered on a number of projects since. Website overhauls, graphic design for fundraising events, marketing collateral, interactive annual report creation and so much more! Her creativity, trusted partnership, and patience have proven remarkably fruitful for the nonprofits that I’ve led. Laura and Blue Canvas is my forever creative partner!”
“I’ve worked with Laura Fairman since 2007 on probably no less than 50 design projects – from full blown branding, to websites, to blog profiles and podcasts. Laura is masterful in her design work. She takes great pride and care to ensure she captures what her clients want.”
“Laura Fairman turned out to be a fortuitous choice when I sought her help in converting a relatively primitive website into what became an attractively designed, easily navigable home for dissimilar, media rich content. I believe Blue Canvas’s end result exceeded my expectations because Laura combines the necessary technical tool set with exceptional collaborative and tutoring skills. Besides understanding that budgets exist for a reason, Laura consistently was able to listen carefully enough to even vaguely articulated client design and business objectives so that she was able to recast them with innovative website solutions.”
“Laura walked us through the web design process each step of the way and met every deadline. Her design ideas and technological prowess resulted in a well organized website that is dynamic, visually appealing, fully functional and easily navigable. Since then we have worked with Laura regularly both on unscheduled web issues and scheduled website modifications and improvements. She has always been very responsive to any requests for help and addresses each one with an attention to detail that evidences her deep commitment to client satisfaction and considerable talent. Our Blue Canvas designed website has helped our organization grow and Laura is the stalwart standing behind it.”
