What the public demands the market must follow. |
Section 1 Creative Supplies for Creative NeedsEvery
graphic artist, designer, or painter needs creative supplies for their craft.
There’s no getting around it. I’m sure you agree. The success of an artist is
a knock out portfolio, and that portfolio requires great materials and
equipment to get the work done. If
you have any questions regarding any suggestions, comments, or any help in
selecting equipment or supplies let me know by e-mail.
I’m always looking out for a bargain, too. I’m always keeping up with the
latest tools and technology in graphics. The Graphics industry is growing by
leaps and bounds and so am I. Check back with the store from time to time for
any new stuff that will come along. Keeping up with the trends will help in
developing that idea you’re looking for. Popular titles: q

on-line portfolio shows our versatility and quality. Our design ranges from

You’re welcome to browse through my illustration galleries to see what
my techniques and interests are. Let
my illustrations draw attention to your advertising, marketing and printed
project. My specialty is doing figures, caricatures, landscapes, Christian
theme, nature and decorative art. As you view my images in the galleries to
the left of the page, you can see for yourself the type of work I do. All my
work is clean-cut, genuine one-of-a-kind originals. Section 3 General StoreHere
are a few essentials I recommend no one can be without (Well, I can’t
certainly do without). Listed are
Bible Software and DVD, Water Filters (according to health experts
chlorinated and fluorinated water is a health risk), health foods, survival,
and camping and bicycling gear. After months of searching and research I’ve
found one of the best health products anywhere. It’s hard to find the best
nutritional supplements for optimum health without all the fillers. Vitalagy
and A.C.T.
are easy to use and mix in a glass and the results are amazing. You have more
energy and you’re never tired. Want to know more about Vitalagy
and A.C.T.?
Read my rave about these life saving products. Have you tried to lose weight
only to be disappointed with products that claim to say what they do and
don’t and you wind up gaining back the weight. Well read this about SYSTRIM and
the protocol
of how to lose weight and keep it off forever. I
just love smoothies so much so they’ve changed my life in a healthy sense.
Smoothies are packed with lots of vitamins and antioxidants. Smoothies are an
excellent way of getting those important daily requirements of fruits and
vegetables. They can be made from fresh or frozen fruits and fresh vegetables
and juices or both depending on your preference. I also add soymilk, kefir,
yogurt and banana for body. Protein powder can be used, if you prefer not to
use soymilk or yogurt. And for added boost and optimum health barley grass,
ground flaxseed (omega-3), fermented wheat germ, and Spirulina. For a sweet
drink add raw honey, Stevia, Xylitol, or Agave nectar. It’s all healthy and you can’t go wrong
with a smoothie. They’re the craze that’s here to stay. Here’s my own
personal smoothie I have every morning. Super
Berry Smoothie Into

Best-Ever Cool Drink Recipes Book
I’ve also included some favorite music that
is the best to listen to. My list is quite eclectic and I appreciate its
magic and soothing effect. It has been proven scientifically that music used
in therapy can change a person’s disposition dramatically. Every style that a
person chooses to listen to become a characteristic of that person’s
personality, for example if you listen to Gospel you become spiritual. Music
has a powerful influence in all cultures. Music gets the creative neurons
flowing and helps to relieve stress. I like comedy albums, too. The funnier
the better. Laughter is a good medicine. It reduces stress. Even God’s Word
the Bible says in Proverbs 17:22, that a merry heart does good like medicine.
So, get you a good dose of clean fun. Keep
watch on this section for new and cool stuff!
BRYCE 6 Available Now! Unleash Your 3D World I Am the WAY,
the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father EXPECT THROUGH ME – Jesus Christ (John 14:6) Enter by the
narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that
leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow
is the gate and difficult is the WAY which leads to life, and there
are few who find it. – Jesus Christ (Matthew 7:13-14) ©2008-2015.
