New Job!

Well I have finished my first week of full time work. Quite enjoyable, the people there are very welcoming and easy to talk to. The business is called All Australian Greetings, a greeting card place. There are two designers including me.
The cards are different to designing a brochure, they use foil on all there cards, so I'm working with different layers, different programs aka CS, not CS4. I use a wacom tablet.
It's weird leaving the building with nothing in my hands, not laptop, no folio and no signing out but the difference is good. It's takes me an hour to get there in the morning but it's worth it.
Shannon, signing out.

Ceramic Exhibition

The ceramic sculptures were quite skillful. There were a couple that really liked such as the candle holders, but there was only one that I had really liked of the paintings. That was the self-portrait the guy with the spaces in his ears. Otherwise, the embosed face with the projecter was very creative.
