This is the eighth or ninth (I can’t remember) EPS drawing I’ve uploaded. There are many more on GEnie.
Once again in the Nagel tradition, I’ve created “Lady in a White Jump Suit” for your pleasure and use.
How do you depict white on white? It’s difficult, as you can see, on a computer. Many more shades of gray could have been utilized, but they just don’t come out on 300 dpi devices. Additional shades and/or blends would have just created unnecessary size to the file with diminishing returns. Even on a linotronic, this jump suit, being white, only utilizes gray areas from about 5% to about 25%. The deep shadow areas don’t go much deeper than 30%. With subtle tonality like this the computer is a poor substitute for photography.
Yet, with the computer, and Illustrator, graphic effects can be added to the art that would be impossible with conventional art methods. If you own Illustrator, try enlarging by 200 or so percent and print - particularly the face.
Anyway, hope you like her.

A lot of people ask: “What are Pressure Sensitive Graphics?”
That’s where QuickSigns comes in...
QuickSigns(TM) is the original MACINTOSH vinyl sign/lettering service bureau from Showker Graphic Arts & Design.
We established this department in 1987 to create
-> Interior/exterior signage,
-> Vehicle signage,
-> Architectural signage,
-> Interior signage
-> point-of-purchase, and
-> display graphics
for our clients.
It worked so well, we decided to go "public" with it.
We're a "trade" shop - which means we offer our services to the trade - these services are available to you the online desktop publisher as well. You FAX us your design, we give you a price, then cut and ship the graphics to you. Simple. Then you mark it up, and resell it to your client. Even better.
We like to keep it simple - so we don't have pages of rates and details. You simply tell us what you want and we take care of you. If you send your cutter-ready file on disk, we'll send it back filled with a collection of great EPS clip art, templates, and ready-to-go sign designs you can use on future sign and DTP projects!
