Images And Musings From My Empire of Signs. Painting from Life →. April 9, 2011. Drawing from life is to my art what sleeping, eating, and regular exercise are to my body. I’ve gone to at least one three-hour life session a week for the past fifteen years. Every pose, typically ranging from one minute to twenty, challenges me to do the impossible, to do justice to the model before me. This is one of my favorite models, Star, in a 20 minute pose:. Thanks for your time, more posts coming soon! You are comm...

How to be a successful Freelance Graphic Designer: I feel bad for my client
http://rob-digitalartist.blogspot.com/2011/03/i-feel-bad-for-my-client.html
Tuesday, March 22, 2011. I feel bad for my client. I just got off the phone with a new client. I really felt bad after talking with him. He got in touch with me about a month ago for a brochure. I explained that I would help him with his text to communicate clearly what he has to offer and design the brochure at the highest level of professionalism. I didn't hear from him until today. What would he have gotten spending a little more? Strong sales copy. Strong graphic design that would have lead the p...

Some times my clients make suggestions, some of them are so good that I hit myself silently in my head thinking. "now why didn't I think of that". Yep, sometimes they come up with great ideas but sometimes they THINK they know better when they don't and that's when it becomes frustrating. What do you think? Another prob...

How to be a successful Freelance Graphic Designer: January 2012
http://rob-digitalartist.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 2, 2012. The difference between a "cheap" and a small budget. Let's differentiate between "cheap" and someone who doesn't have much of a budget. I can work with someone that doesn't have much of a budget, but I can't help someone who is looking for the cheapest person to do the job. In this economy it's tough to say no to a prospective client, but it's important to remember that if you sell cheap you will attract cheap. And no matter what you charge a client that is cheap, they will a...
