Here is a Christmas card design that I created last week. I have been working on Halloween and Christmas images to send out to some companies. I don't know if I mentioned that my sojourn to the National Stationery show last May lead to a licensing contract with Design Design. They will be using several Christmas designs of mine and some of my wine images for boxed notes. This is all so good, it is nice to have work that you created used this way instead of have the work assigned and directed by an art director. (not that I mind that)It is just a different way to work. When I am designing I feel like I am working for myself, that I am my own client. It can add to that vacuum feeling of being an artist but fortunately I live in an area of the country where I have managed to plug in to quite a few other artists and designers. This week some of us are getting together to have a licensing meeting to discuss ideas and swap information! We are going to Liz's house-she has such a great house, she collects vintage toys and it is such eye candy to visit her place!
