Design Design Design

I do a lot of graphic design work. Some for the Internet, like websites and blogs, and more recently for prints like flyers, brochures, invitation cards, store posters and business cards. Unfortunately for me, my clients are all overseas and printing posters is all done overseas as well. I would really love to see the kind of [custom poster frames] that my work is framed in, but sadly I only get to see them in photographs that my clients sent to me upon my request.

I have a good mind to just find some local printing company here and get some printing posters done here so that at least I have something to put in my portfolio … lol! After all I don’t think that it is that expensive, and it would be nice to see my posters live in all their glorious colors.

The festive season is here, and that means more posters and art work for me to do. I just hope I don’t run out of ideas to keep my designs fresh and interesting in order to help my clients attract more customers of their own, which in turn means more work for me.. it’s a vicious cycle, but a good one that is :)

More ideas here would perhaps help me with my washed out mind…lol… but then again sometimes when the speed of churning out designs is more important, you can’t help, but wish your clients would just tell you what they need and want to see, instead of saying.. “give me a HOT HOT HOT design”…lol

Oh well, back to the drawing board for me now. I am looking through magazines and websites to help get me inspired, but instead I am looking at the products on sale … hahaha.. I’m bad!
