The last week or so has been a completely hectic time!

The postcard for the press package for "The Northern Quarter", a Dutch play directed by my friend Erwin Maas was finally sent to the printers this Monday afternoon!

To say it was an ordeal by fire is an under-statement!
I think I managed to get two hours sleep over the course of two whole days!

The problem was that I've never professionally used "Adobe Illustrator", never designed a theatrical promotional postcard before and then add this to the stubborn mind-set of a forty year old who still possess the naivete that he could accomplish the whole task in a few key strokes with "Adobe Photoshop" image manipulations and was off to the races with the whole project in a winning hand!

Not so!

But after much hard work and at times numerous frustrating moments the task was complete to the satisfaction of all parties concerned!

But I have to say the whole learning curve, although a very steep one and over a short space of time, was, in hindsight an enjoyable and valuable experience for the future of my goals for this business.

Next I have the pleasure of producing poster prints for the plays production which I anticipate to be a far simpler exercise than the execution of the postcard!

We shall see?!
