Commission finalizes four postcard designs and finalizes artist-credit placement
Loading...
Summary
The commission reviewed four selected postcard designs (seahorse motif), resolved layout and artist-credit placement (right-hand side/white text recommended for legibility) and asked staff to circulate final proofs before printing.
The Seaside Art History Commission finalized four postcard designs from a competitive application process and discussed layout details and artist credit placement. The chair said the postcard procurement drew 13 applicants and four finalists; commissioners must finalize designs before printing.
Commissioners reviewed variations (including some with black-background options that staff said were incidental to the designer's submissions) and discussed where to place artist credit so it remains visible across designs. Members recommended placing the artist name on the right-hand side with contrasting color (white on darker areas) and agreed staff should circulate final proofs for a thumbs-up/thumbs-down response.
Staff will send final proofs to commissioners for review; once approved the designs will proceed to printing and distribution. No final print vendor or quantities were agreed at the meeting.
