What's in a name?

Why Grafische Werken?

Good question. Grafische Werken is Dutch for Graphic Works. Which begs the question why not Graphic Works? Too boring.

I should probably mention that I'm not Dutch. But if you've read earlier posts, I like ocean liners, and Holland America Line, a Dutch concern, is one of my favorites. (And on a more superficial level, no other language translated as well.)

I didn't want it to be regional, such as Northeast Something or Other. I wanted to be able to pack it up and take it wherever I went.

And hopefully, it makes one pause and take a look.

Over the years, I've helped market the artstheatre in particular, designed business cards, flyers, postcards, if it needed to be on paper, I took a crack at it.

October and November were dark as I was caught up in research (See the post Won't you let me take you on a sea cruise?), hence the maelstrom in December. Plus, I went through scores of photos selecting favorites to post. And looking for a more permanent gig.

Thanks for stopping by, and please continue to do so, as more is always on the way.
