I was involved in a project where I sent promotional materials to ten people in other cities. My business cards were going to Canada, Hawaii, etc. Those ten people would send me their promotional material as well. It took a while to get everyone's items. Once I did get them I went to where I could find bulletin boards and put the items up and shot a photo of them.
Now, it's a lot harder than one would think to find bulletin board in my area. There are not a lot of mom and pop or small businesses around so there are not a lot of bulletin boards. All the bulletin boards are Giant food stores, the Carvel (which I have yet to hit), and the Brooklyn Deli. See photos of the promo project below. Check out the Flickr group with the rest of the cities and their promos.
I've finally started a new painting. I've been planning on doing it for some time now. It is based on the apartment and we stayed in while in Berlin last October. I loved how the room looked and the view from the patio window.
I started a second painting of the same subject half way in the middle of the first one. I'm glad because it ga
ve me a new way to think about painting this interior with all its straight lines. I'm excited to get it done. It's a different technique than to which I am acustomed. I'm using hot press archs paper and its if really smooth and I have to make sure it is really dry.
Take a look at my workspace and my genuine beginnings.
I want to thank Mollystuff for interviewing me and featuring me on her blog, Mollystuff. http://mylifedesign.blogspot.com/2008/08/featured-etsy-seller-victoriasart.html
Doing the interview was a lot of fun. You will get to know me a little more since she asked some good questions.
When you get a chance, take a look at Mollystuff's store. She make some really cool looking jewelry.
I've been on a short hiatus, but I'm back. I'm done with school for the summer semester. I have a 3 week break before the Fall semester starts back up again. I'm going to use my time wisely and enjoy myself and create things. We went down to Virginia beach and enjoyed ourselves quite a bit. Before we left though, I made some really cute cards that I've added to my shop if I don't say so myself.
