Fredericksburg Sketches

A visual Celebration of our community

By Paula Raudenbush

McDonald’s

Recently I went with the Fredericksburg Urban Sketchers to Eagle Village and, while there are lots of great views of cars, people, and businesses, I was drawn to the McDonald's across the highway. I decided to concentrate on a black and while line drawing but the big yellow arches kept talking to me so I gave in and colored them. Sometimes keeping things simple is the best way to go.

Hope you're all having a great summer and maybe even doing some sketching.

What's up with your website? When creating content and graphics for clients, I'll visit their website to learn more about them. This allows me to check out their "About" section, see their graphics style, confirm their logo, etc. There are 3 major things to keep in mind when maintaining a good website.

1) Are your graphics up to date?

2) Are your links working?

3) Is your content correct?

In order to keep your website looking fresh and up to date, it's important to change your graphics. You can do this monthly or quarterly. Changing up your graphics allows customers to have a new experience when visiting your website.
