Prosperity Map

So, on of my recent projects was recreating a comprehensive map of Prosperity, South Carolina. Now, one would think that I would have this all figured out since I have lived in Prosperity my whole life until my recent move, however so much changes in such little time in a little town like Prosperity. Here is the before map:



Well, after many meetings with the client and the Business Association, there is a new map, and it is pictured below. All places of business and interest are mentioned in a colored block, corresponding with a new name and color for Prosperity. If you would like a full list or a copy of the actual inside of this new brochure just send me an email at ashleyfulmer@gmail.com I'll be happy to share a little bit of my hometown with you! The final product is below. Click on the image to enlarge.

Welcome Home

So, for all of you out there who love a good laugh, below is the link for what E's co-workers did to his office when we were away on our honeymoon. It was quite hilarious hearing about it, especially when he had to unwrap his keys from aluminum foil to get his cabinets open.

Drawing frogs...

Just wanted to share a little drawing I just finished up. Shortly, it will be part of Prosperity, SC's (my home town) new brochure. Once the brochure is up and going I'll post a few samples of it. The brochure will be in rest stops and shops throughout South Carolina. For now, enjoy the frog. And later, I'll show you why Prosperity is known for frogs!

Let me just note a few things:
1- Check out the sunlight. This office is pretty much ideal because of all of the gorgeous sunlight shining through! :)
2- It may look messy, but come on people, I'm an artist. I got a lot of stuff :)

Enjoy, and be jealous of my soon-to-be daily view ;)

The lovely GOCCO!

Well, I finally put my awesome gocco to work. And boy, does it take some practice and patience. Anyways, I'm going to attempt to explain how this thing works as best I can. So, here's the machine:



Its a small Japanese printer that you ink yourself after your burn the image onto a silkscreen. This is a photo of the gocco opened up. It requires 2 flash bulbs and a new screen each time you burn an image onto the screen, which is inserted into the small light blue area.



After you burn the image to the screen by exposing it with flash bulbs, you ink your image. After inking the image, your screen looks like this:


A mess. Its pretty much magic I'd say... how this thing works. For my first project I think I was pretty successful. However, this is actually a dual post... announcing our ENGAGEMENT!!! Since I am a designer, of course everything in our wedding will be designed by me (and the help and input of my wonderful fiance). Let me know what you think of them! Here's the final project, in its mass :) and also the hand-made envelopes that I made to complete the unique design for our party!

Please feel free to contact me for a special and unique project!

Where have I been?

Hey guys, I know its been forever since my last post. A week and a day to be exact. Anyways, let me just update on you on my whereabouts.

Friday - long day of packing, organizing and some crazy working out.
Saturday - even longer day of moving lots of stuff and setting up a new office, trying to get my laptop to work.

Monday - working on the laptop. Problems: Charger seems to fail... what can I say, its a 6 year old iBook and its still kickin. I'm very thankful! Got a few wedding invitation samples completed, discussed with customers. Lots of research.

Tuesday - faught with laptop all day. Decided to go with an old desktop temporaily... and its a PC. Yes, I said that right. Its pretty unfortunate but what I have to do. Its about the only way I can work remotely.

Wednesday - More tax work, hoping to finish it today. Researching and aquiring quotes for invitations.

Thursday - Bought lots of supplies for invites (hence the gazillion I have to produce in the next few weeks.) and a few things for the wedding :)

Friday - here we are today. Plans for today? Work on and complete tax stuff. Lots of organization. Wish me luck :)

Plans for next week?
1) Get LOTS of invitations done and in the mail.
2) More samples up on etsy - make sure you check it out by clicking on the links to the right of these posts!
3) Work on several custom orders... and ones that will be placed.
4) Get ready for a bridal shoot on Sunday.
5) I'm sure there's tons more on the agenda, my brain just can't focus on it right now!

As for now, have a fantastic weekend and look forward to new items in the shop!

Quote

An awesome quote to start my day provided by my awesome mom:

You didn't exit the womb with your intended career tattooed on your chest. No printout of innate skills accompanied your birth. But as life progressed, you began noticing your gifts. Skills, revealed, Knacks, uncovered. God gave those.

Oh, so true!
