Here’s a skateboarder with a groovy board. I think the pattern on the shoes is distracting, but the client liked it.

A Latino boy, aged 7-9, standing casually while holding a skateboard under one arm. The other arm is gesturing as though he's talking. He's wearing jeans, a green zip-up sweatshirt, a light blue helmet, and checkerboard patterned sneakers. The skateboard has a pastel rainbow fade background with scattered peace signs and doves.

A skateboarder with a prosthetic arm. One of those 3D printed ones in the fun colors. The client chose the colors.

I particularly like how the kid’s t-shirt print came out. This was changed in the final phase with the client instructing me to create a geometric print for their shirt.

The long hair was included both to help show a little more movement and to make the character’s gender a little more ambiguous.

Promo Postcards

I got my newest promo postcards from VistaPrint just now.

It’s a girl-themed card this time. I used the new Girls in a Treehouse image on the color side and the one with Sarah and Katie with the bike and skateboard on the back side. You might notice that I recolored the “No Boys Allowed” sign so that it didn’t distract from the overlaid text. You probably didn’t notice (because it’s not important) but I moved the bird too. The image wasn’t exactly the same dimensions as the card, so I had to cut off a little at the sides. So, I nudged the bird over a bit so it wouldn’t be too close to the edge. Working with digital images makes last-minute changes so much easier!

Now, I really need to get moving on my promo mailing list. I’m in the process of transferring my notecard-based system into a computer-based one. I have to type everything in new, which is time consuming now but should pay off later.

Anyone want one of these postcards? Contact me with your name and address and I’ll mail you one.
