Kids,

I do a few art shows during the summer months along with the Hood River First Friday Art Walk on the first friday of every month.
My spot at the First Friday is in a little alcove where you don't see me until you're right there. You can't look down the street and see me.
I figured I needed a sign.
I chose two vertical photos and put "Mark Hudon Photography" in a nice font at the bottom of the photo, added a drop shadow and it looked real nice. I ordered some double sided sticky film from Dick Blick, printed the photo on Epson Matte Paper to 24x36, stuck it to a piece of backing board and trimmed the edges. It looks way cool and professional.

Mark Hudon Photo Printing will offer this size sign (you add your own lettering), printed on Epson Matte Paper, stuck to 1/4" foammcore backing board for $60 not including shipping.

I just printed four large prints for Rick Lundh last week and he seemed pretty happy. The Moab Entrada 300 is pretty awesome and Rick's photos, coming off the printer, were a sight to behold.

Email me for prices.

I bought some supplies from Dick Blick four years ago and they still email me a couple times a month with promotional garbage.....

Oh yeah, and you should get all the junk mail Hood River Coffee Co. gets every day! Junk catalogs, junk faxes, junk phone calls, junk email. You should see what I throw away everyday!

Marc. I'd call Blick and tell them to take you off their list. I never get anything from anyone I order from in that regard.

You know...I did have Mark print out a 20x30, (2)16x21s, and a 16x16 for me...and they freakin looked stunning coming out of that printer and on that paper. I agree with Mark's comment...all my existing prints on luster and gloss look like they were printed on copier paper! You at least got to give it a shot...try printing one print...you'll freak out! It even made my extremely average photography look awesome.
Definitely a great deal! :toast:
