Melbourne Body Art Competition 2011

{ August 21st, 2011 }

Yesterday myself, Jeanette Maynes | Model (first time ever) from (Design House - graphic and website designer) and Lolita Valerga | Artist from (Shades of Inspiration - henna and face painting artist) came together as Model (canvas) and Artist to create an Organic interpretation of the theme “Wired for Sound” based on elements and forces of nature for the Melbourne Body Art Competition 2011.

Unfortunately we did not come a place as the competition was fierce but we had an absolute ball taking on such a fun adventure that took a couple of months preparation. We were certainly a crowd favourite and as they say “Art is in the eye of the beholder”!

We were also quite the crowd pleaser at Crown Casino having a couple of wind down drinks after the event!

Please read our concept and development for the ’Wired for Sound!’ theme here!

Billboards My Favourite!

{ August 11th, 2011 }

You probably don’t know that a Billboard is one of the most cost effective and useful advertising tools a business can have and if you chose the right site a very affordable monthly outlay!!

It’s something that is viewable 24 / 7 (especially if you use reflective material) and your skin / creative can lasts for years.
It is far cheaper than paper advertising that is thrown in the bin that day!

Keep your message ‘SIMPLE’, colourful, roughly seven words, choose a great location and wait for the feedback / enquires to come in!!

Add an extension to create the WOW factor!

I’m sure yours will look as ‘HOT’ as mine which has over 7,000 cars passing it every day!!

Is it time for your business to ‘Hit the Highway’ ??

Having just recently decided to branch out into Billboard advertising I came into contact with Jeanette Maynes from Design House.   I have found Jeanette to be very efficient and reliable – going that extra mile to ensure that the ad is “eye catching”, easy to read and of a very high quality.  She was even responding to my emails over a weekend period.

 
To those of you who are still a little uncertain as to which creative graphic or website designer to use I would highly recommend that you choose Jeanette, you won’t regret it.”
