Over the years I’ve been freelancing, I connect with many types of potential clients and I’m frequently asked things like “What is your rate/How much do you charge?” without any acknowledgement of their budget for this requested project. This is a big giveaway to how much a collective value has been put into: Their project…
I’m in the market for an upgrade so the purchase of a new laptop is happening sometime over the next few months – the only kind of shopping I actually enjoy. The search for a slightly better version than the one I currently use, is on – basically, something to run my design software and…
After attending my first yena event in April, the opportunity arose for me to become a part of such a strong cause – developing a platform for young entrepreneurs to come together and grow. I didn’t have to second guess or question my decision. The free to attend “Networking for Young Entrepreneurs” event was held…
Designed / In My City / Photography / Website
This time, the focus is on websites that are for Birmingham based businesses. In the city centre, with each shot capturing some of the things that could easily pin point where I was, I want to always display a general appearance of any city I take pictures in. Even you could tell me the location…
As well as currently working on multiple client projects, these design and print services continue to remain operating over this holiday period. Fulfilling all incoming small and large orders, acquiring what you need in the condition you expect it to be in. It is very rare that there is a holiday or a period of time…
There are a few places on my list to visit this year but in a week, I will be travelling to somewhere in Europe. Undecided between 3 cities or how long I will be there for, but I will take at least a few days in a new environment to connect with the different art,…
The main focus of last month was the 2018 London Art Fair. As always, I do not look at the featured artists list, I like to go in with fresh eyes, thoughts and welcome the feeling of being made speechless by multiple areas covered in art work. One artist I was most excited to see…
Business cards, banners, t-shirts, uniform, artwork… we can print it all. The printing can be completed and delivered the very same day in most cases, but a maximum of 72 hours is the latest. Curvecfd can now offer you a complete project experience, an all-in-one service for your creative ideas to come to life. If…
One major training method I used quite often when I was first developing my design skills were tutorials, on how to produce a specific piece of art. It has been a while since I actually followed one, until recently. A tutorial I tried yesterday was posted on the Adobe Creative Magazine site, nearly a year…
July was a nice month for good weather, and I happened to have something planned on the weekend where decent weather followed. Camping trip with hikes and walks in the Lake District was different from normal but welcoming experience. Day 1: Hiking up a mountain and the name of that particular one escapes me at…
Having some ink left over from an old printer played a small part in a decision to replace it, with the exact same model. The EPSON WorkForce 7610D turned out to be an extremely useful printer in my case: The WiFi printing, you do not need wires to print. The ability to scan in A3…
Very, very overdue and brief post about the Birmingham Flux Convention 2017 event by AfroFlux, held at the Hippodrome over the 3rd weekend in May. I attended on Sunday 21st and it was explained to me that it was the first ever event of its kind. The creatives who had tables/booths were very interesting to…
