Everko runs his first Advertising campaign.
Today was successful in a few ways.
this is a quick view of the poster I took around town:
It's an ad for my drawing services.
So I've now been to every independent Shop Leeds had to offer. Indeed Such was the success of this I ran out of copies before I even managed to visit all of them!
Sorry to miss you Birds Yard, Dock Street Market and Adelphi Pub, you're next on my hit list.
Worth knowing:
- A3 size copies at the library cost the same as A3 size copies at my local printers.
- You can then tinker with your work in the library. I like to draw around the text in Tippex for added kapow
- Black and white is cheapest although most shades of brown and grey can be disappointing.
- Most independent stores are happy to show posters if they have the space.
- For most purposes of printing most shades of black ink don't work very well but for photocopying, it's fine. If you do want to print it must be the most opaque shade of black you can manage, Sharpie pens are close to the right level you need.
All I got to do now is wait and see what happens. I'm going to make a new ad every month to keep it fresh. I wasn't able to scan the actual ad because that would have needed a memory stick which has gone on an errant trip of its own design.
Oh and before I forget:
Nectarines and for that matter peaches are a terrible lunch item to eat if you want to keep your work clean and tidy. I spilled mine despite my very best efforts all over my hands and had to seek out some free loos at the coach station to wash it off with. I then was caught off by a violent soap disaster missing both my hands and landing squarely on my otherwise pristine artwork. Never taking out a nectarine ever again...Ever.
