.I have just about used up the last batch that I got this time last year, and I need to get ready for the symposium and the serious card swap. This order I got some mini cards which I love and first saw from other USKers in Lisbon. As most of my cards are given to people on the streets (complete strangers who I don’t really want to give my mobile number to) these minicards will be perfect.(BTW- I have hacked the number on the above image...so please don’t call it!!!) I also like to fun of finding sketches to fit the format.
Didn’t really do anything inventive with the big cards so mainly previous images (running out of time a little to get the order in) - next order I will try some more new images.... And I really need to start drawing Borromini Bear more so he appears on them!
Anyway... I have plenty for anyone at Sto Dgo who wants one!
If you want to get some Moo Cards yourself the link is http://us.moo.com/. Of course being in Australia I have to do things early to allow for the cheapest form of international shipping (haven't found anywhere locally that is as good and as easy...often the way!)
Hello, Liz. Jorge Royan here.
ReplyDeleteI will attend your seminar in SD and I have just posted here in the blog.
Please tell me, what is this Card Exchange? It´s the first time I attend a Symposium.
Thanks you! Jorge Royan

Hi Jorge, Looking forward to meeting you!
DeleteMany of our have business cards so naturally we like to give them to other artists when we meet them with details of our blog/flickr etc ... With so many USKers in the one spot and the one time there is a lot of swapping happening! Of course it doesn’t need to be a swap – I have enough cards to give to anyone that wants one whether they have their own card on not.
It sounds as a great Idea. But for us beginners, is it bad form to offer regular cards with our data on them?
DeleteAnd, besides, this, I need to thank you for your drawings online.
As you read yesterday I began a year ago, and at the beginning it was all doubts.
With a flashlight and a machete I began exploring the USK site, and found some guys to learn from. You were one of them.
So when it came to color I did something with the works of you, Nina J, Cathy Johnson and a couple more you may want to see.
If you send me an e-mail to jr@royan.com.ar I will send you the jpgs of my color analyzing work on 20 of your drawings among others...
You will like it:-)
It is certainly not bad form!!! The important thing is to make sure we are able to keep in touch and keep up with each others work afterwards... the first year I just asked people to write their blogs down in my book!!!!
DeleteLiz,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations for your idea and for the initiative of promoting the swap of artistic cards that go beyond the usual information.
hi Miguel, it is not my idea...just something that happens of itself!
DeleteHello Liz, thanks for the suggestion, I'm in love with the Moo cards. I'm thinking about getting the Mini cards, but don't know if they would get lost in a wallet. Which do you recommend?
ReplyDeleteHey, just opened my Mini Moo's... they're awesome! Beautifully finished, kind of a satin, velvety look. I think that I crammed too much info in the "front" side (I actually thought the recurrent side was the back...), but the sketches look awesome. Again thanks for the suggestion.
ReplyDeleteExcellent Luis - hope to have one!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I'll bring lots of Moo cards to pass around. Look forward to trading!
