I had my first Rhimax Art success yesterday.
My HP Photosmart 7660 can print the Rhimax paper.
This was an exciting breakthough.
On Friday, I created my first mockups for my Art on
Rhimax Paper. I sent this to Ryan Gilett, my friend
at Rhimax. Ryan is the V.P. for this innovative company
that I want to see impact the use of plastic.
My first attempt printing Art intended for Rhimax
did not work, even on the color xerox where I normally get
excellent results. The layout was muddy. The way I saw
the layout on my New Apple Imac did not match how the
Minolta printer saw it.
I knew right then that this layout would not fit Rhimax
and its wonderful potential to show up earthy messages.
On Sunday, I created my first mock up of the poster below
that when complete will show one of the Rebirth the Earth messages
that I plan to have on garden buckets and the first Portable Mini
Enchanted Garden at my upcoming Pacific Symposium November 8-11.
I have been dreaming up various uses combining the Enchanted Garden
Messages with Rhimax.
I was pleased to see that the Rhimax durable felt paper
went through my printer.
I showed the first draft to various farmers and potential
Enchanted Garden Sponsors at the Farmers Market yesterday.
Everyone was very impressed with this wonderful paper
that has many, many uses Including weed control.
Two of the farmers will be doing experiments with the product.
You can see the many used on the Rhimax website.

I am going to use the Rhimax recycled chemical free paper
at the Altar at the Pacific Symposium. People willl write out
their Seed Dreams on it and place them in a basket.
This copy of the Seed Dreams when then return to the earth.
I will feed it to my earth worms. This ties in beautifully with
the concept of Plant Your Dream.
Our dreams need to be one with the earth.
The poster above will feature the names of various Enchanted Garden Sponsors.
My plan now is to have various Enchanted Garden messages on the Mini Portable
Garden Buckets that will show my first container garden.
I will see how far I get by the conference.
I want to give this partnership of my art with this wonderful environmental friendlypaper
time to evolve.
Simple fonts and simple illustrations will work best in this marriage.
That's the story for now.
