Shoemakers' Children
July 10th, 2007 12:36 pmFiddle Tunes seems to be leading to a fair bit of business for me.
Gordy (of Shanghaied on the Willamette) is considering having me do their next album cover. I was drafted to draw the card for Denis, Adelard, and les deux Andres, and Ray of the Centralia Old Time Music Camp-Out saw it and wants to use it (slightly modified) for the COTMCO logo. Of course, I don't have it - I drew it at 3 a.m. straight onto card stock and it's in Quebec by now. But I took pics on Lori's camera, so if she didn't toss 'em, I won't have to recreate the whole dang thing from memory.
I hope it's not irretrievably tacky to reuse the special, original thank-you-card-art for a music event logo. Ray was really insistant on wanting THAT one (with Adelard swapped out for a banjo player, natch).
I'm in the middle of revising the Fiddlers Don't Fret graphic so I can sell it as mugs on CafePress and consider another shirt run. I ALMOST got it done before Fiddle tunes, and told people there to expect it within the month.
To top it off, when I returned to work Monday I had a message on my work phone from Andy Bartels, a former neighbor, who wants some illo work done for his parents' 50th anniversary.
The unfinished projects already in the wings are a sigil for Beth's friend Keith, and the Amy Zilk, Piano Technician webpage. Oh, and finishing the violin painting for Amy so she can have it before her party (and I can have the cash before I go to Japan).
My own website is a disaster, but shoemakers' children...
