Greetings!
Happy Father's Day to all you Dads out there! In honor of you, a few quotes to make you smile...
"Small boy's
definition of Father's Day: It's just like Mother's
Day only you don't spend so much." -- Unknown
"A father is a guy who has snapshots in his wallet where
his money used to be." -- Unknown
"By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was
right,
he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong." -- Charles
Wadsworth
"A
king, realizing his incompetence, can either delegate or
abdicate
his duties. A father can do neither. If only sons could
see the
paradox, they would understand the dilemma." -- Marlene
Dietrich

Expand Your Horizons!
|
| Upsize Your Image!  |
Enlarge Your Peonies!
Increase Your Size!
Okay, we're not selling gray market pharmaceuticals here...but
for the next two weeks we ARE giving you a great incentive to try an image in
the next size up.
Here's how it works:
Order five Lumira prints of the same image in any size and
get one print (same image) in the next larger size for the same price.
For example:
Order 5-8x10 Lumira prints of any one image at $7.05 each, and get one
11x14 of that same image for the same price! That's a savings of $4.95 over the single 11x14 price!
Want to save more?
Buy 5-16x20 Lumira prints of any one image for $17
each, and get one 20x24 for the same price! That's a savings of $13 off the
single 20x24 price! Or buy 5-20x30's and get one 27x40 at the same price. The choice is yours!
Need help?
Just give Greg or Mike a call in Customer Service
and they will assist you in figuring out the next proportional size up.
Offer good June 16-30. Lumira digital photographic prints
only.
Fast talk at end of commercial: Due to the incredible popularity of our specials, the turn
around time for your order may be a little longer than our normal time frame.
Rush orders and orders with deadlines are not eligible for our specials. Please
call if you have any questions.

Women + Art: A Juggling Act
|
| Kate Dardine  | Adopt the motto, "no excuses!"
Last fall I successfully juried into a 40 year old artist's organization
called Women Artist's of the West. And then this spring I was juried
into the WAOW all-member show with my painting, "Vision Quest." These
two accomplishments have done a lot to "prove" to myself that I have
finally reached a point in my artistic journey where my work is
considered to be on a par with artists I have admired for many years.
It's been a long time coming...
Although I graduated from college
with a degree in Illustration (many years ago!), life - and the choices I
made - have kept me from pursuing art full-time. The path I chose took
me on a meandering course, and I already was married with two children
before I decided to finish college and get my degree. So although art
was my passion, I had to fit it in around the needs of my family. When
we left Connecticut 22 years ago for the plains of Colorado, I had to
find a part time job to help make ends meet. Luckily, I found a job
which utilized my art skills as a "spotter" at Fine Print Imaging.
Twenty-one years later, I am still at Fine Print - although now I am in
the Marketing Department and working 32 hours a week.
What does
it mean to juggle a full-time job, family responsibilities AND try to
build an art career?
