Collective art project to send Will some love and support.

[ShannonBiondi]

@Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen Please do! The art doesn't need to be elaborate. It could be a simple little doodle with some kind words

[Charlie Eve Ryan]

@ShannonBiondi I'm in!

[ShannonBiondi]

@Charlie-Eve-Ryan Awesome!! That's great Charlie!!

[kaitlinmakes]

Great idea!

[ShannonBiondi]

@kaitlinmakes Awesome! Can we count you in, Kaitlin?

[kaitlinmakes]

@ShannonBiondi 110%

[ShannonBiondi]

@kaitlinmakes Yesss!

[Eli]

I would like to try and get something together for this

[ShannonBiondi]

@Eli Brilliant Eli. That would be amazing. Like I said earlier, it doesn't have to be anything fancy that takes a long time to make. I know people are busy and it's really just to show Will that we're thinking of him and using the skill he helps us to develop to show our appreciation

[juliepeelart]

@ShannonBiondi That is a great idea! So just to clarify, we post it to this thread?

[ShannonBiondi]

@juliepeelart Hi Julie! Great to have you Yes, you post your finished peace on this thread and I'll gather them all together on the 15th of May. Make sure to include your name and whatever message you want to include.

[Johanna Kim]

I'm in:) Thanks for organizing this.

[ShannonBiondi]

@Johanna-Kim Awesome!! Thank you for helping to make it happen

@ShannonBiondi You might want to create a public dropbox or somewhere for people to send their finished pieces rather than posting them in the thread. Because high resolution posts can't be uploaded to the forum, the resulting uploads might not be good enough what would be required by book making software especially if they are not all the same dimensions and you have to resize them on the book pages. I ran into this issue when we put together cards to send to the family of Richard Cartwright, a forum member who died, and was able to figure out work arounds but it would have been much easier if I had had higher resolution files to work with.

[ShannonBiondi]

@demotlj That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the tip!! I'll drop a link to a shared folder over the next few days for people to drop their art into.

[Coley]

I am going to try!

[ShannonBiondi]

@Coley Brilliant! Please do!

[Chip Valecek]

Getting started on my this evening. Planning on using Will's own penguin character in the piece.

[JennyJones]

@Chip-Valecek That’s funny. I had that idea too. It’s OBVIOUSLY a good one.

I am going to make something for Will (possibly penguin related). Just chiming in so you can know to expect one from me.

[ShannonBiondi]

@Chip-Valecek That's a brilliant idea!
