Building Ads

Not a bad gig. I get to create ads, do the layout for the paper, build special sections for the paper, and generally keep myself occupied doing fairly creative stuff. I even managed to rate an office!
I have been recognized by the Washington Newspaper Publishers Association in 2005 and 2006 for my ads. I've received 1st Place in the Multiple Advertiser Ad - Color or Black & White category, 1st Place in the Youth Oriented Content catregory, 2nd Place in the Use Of Two Or More Spot Colors Plus Black category and a number of other citations. Here's a small sample of my work:

Zephyr Alternative Fashion B/W Ad Trophy Lake Golf & Casting - 5.5x5 inch - Two Color Kitsap Optical 2 Color Ad Port Orchard 2 Color Ad DJ's Music Ad B/W Ad Julea's Progressive Salon B/W Ad Hobby Outlet Christmas Ad Robin Hood Restaurant B/W Ad Towne Square Port Orchard B/W Ad Olympic Fitness 2 color Ad Peninsual Subaru & Peninsual Suzuki full color Ad Peninsula Subaru B/W Ad Hobby Outlet - 11.5x21 inches - Full Color Olympic Fitness 2 Color Ad

This was a fun campaign to put together for the 06 Mason County Fair and Rodeo. I got to hand illustrate the ads! Check 'em out.
