Hello again my friends. Yet again it is a sunny yet cool day and I again have an update on the Ochiba~Con poster. I have posted it on my website www.andreapalmerdesign.com and i have also posted it on my DeviantArt account, tweeted it a few days ago and put a link to it in my LinkedIn account. http://alleria855.deviantart.com/art/Maple-372444832. So now that it is complete it is now time to get back to editing my two photographs for the website and get back to my latest illustrator project.
As for the spring cleaning, it is also now complete and things are much better organized and there is more space and it will be a much better work space for me.

Spring Cleaning and Ochiba~Con Poster Design
Hello my friends and here we are again. It is a lovely sunny day bit on the cool side but not bad. The Ochiba~Con poster and postcard is done and once I am sure it has been finalized I will be posting it on my facebook page and my website with proper credit and copyright disclaimers. One must never forget copyright disclaimers.
Along with my job search I have also been doing a bit of reorganization and some spring cleaning. Having a proper clean and organized workspace is important when it comes to working and designing and I have been checking out a few video blogs that have been giving me a few ideas on how to better organize. So I hope to have all that done in a few weeks.
That is all for now.

Ochiba~Con pro bono project
A few days ago a friend of mine told me she was in need of a graphic designer to design some advertising posters and postcards for her Ochiba~Con convention.
"Ochiba~Con is an annual Japanese culture and anime convention held in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, enriching the local community by providing education on Japanese Culture Arts and Films through specific events. Ochiba~Con is a division of Northern Anime Festival"
Work is going real well on the project, however I have had to put my personal projects on hold until the work is done. If you are interested in checking out the convention check it out here. http://www.ochibacon.ca/

Work update and thoughts
Hello everyone,
First off I would like to express my condolences to all who have died and been severely injured during the Boston bombings, the fertilizer explosion in Texas and the earthquake in China. It has sadly been a very deadly week in the world, and my thoughts are with everyone who has suffered a loss this week.
For the work update, aside from making changes to my resume and cover letters, I have added two new photographs to my website and hope to have two others up very soon. I am also still working on my latest project in Illustrator involving a man in a suit of armour. With any luck I will have it done soon and I will be posting the sketch on my deviantart account soon. There are still two more photos I would like to post and they will be posted hopefully within the next few days.

New web design complete
The new web design is live at www.andreapalmerdesign.com. I will be adding some new photographs to the site as well over the next few days. Now I can get back to some new projects that I picked up recently, including the cafepress.ca idea that I have been wanting to see if I can get into.

End in sight
Alas the new website is about done. Tried some fancy stuff for the portfolio page using CSS and now I am close to getting the gallery all done and pretty. Then it is quite simply a matter of posting the new site to my domain.
I also got to work on a new piece which will hopefully start as the first piece of work for cafepress.com. I want to get a few pieces done so I won't be opening the store for it until i've at least got those pieces done. It should be an interesting experience to say the least. Will keep everyone posted. Once the website is up I will add the facebook page in addition.

Status Update
Alrighty so the new webpage is coming along nicely. Just have the links and portfolio sections to finish up and I am hoping I can go live with in the next few weeks and at the same time get my facebook page up too. I also have some new projects in the works as well. Mainly I have been toying with the idea of selling illustrations on products from Cafepress.com. Got a new illustration on the go as well. Should be an interesting few weeks.
Anyway hope everyone had a great Easter weekend, more soon.
