COMMUNICATING THE SUSTAINABLE IDEAL
A poster is any piece of printed paper designed to be attached to a wall or vertical surface. Typically posters include both textual and graphic elements, although a poster may be either wholly graphical or wholly textual. Posters are designed to be both eye-catching and convey information. Posters may be used for many purposes, and they are a frequent tool of advertisers (particularly of events, musicians and films), propagandists, protestors and other groups trying to communicate a message. Posters are also used for reproductions of artwork, particularly famous works. Another type of poster are educational posters, which may be about a particular subject for educational purposes. Related to these are academic or conference are generally low-cost compared to original artwork. Many people also collect posters, and some famous posters have themselves become quite valuable, collectors and vintage posters are usually framed and matted. Posters may be any size.

Elizabeth;
I especially like your logo design and company name. I like playing with text, so I really like the way you connected the G and the E in Gracin Energies. Nice job.
Your logo and business name is very professional looking I really like it!
Professor Groat asked us Daily Painters to check out your blogs and ask you a few questions.
I like your design.
In what way does my Daily Painting 744 differ from my other paintings? How is it the same? Do you think this painting may influence the way I use color in the future?
