Sunflowers and Space ships

Thursday, July 24th, 2008

Lucy Brown continues to investigate the relationships between Kangaroos, chickens, pink clouds and space ships. The sunflowers are doing well this year, fighting off sustained attacks from slugs during the wet weather, as shown above. Paintings can be viewed here at Advertees, if you are happy to dodge the many boxes of T Shirts which […]

Chicken Strike

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

The chicken strike is over. We are still uncertain as to why, but for the past week we have had no eggs. We looked everywhere for new laying spots, but found nothing. We don’t think it was in protest about accomodation or food? because they have only the best of everything. So we have to […]

Chicks

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

Well this was supposed to be a big announcement on the blog at the time of hatching, but now more than a week has passed before we have found time to post a picture of the Advertees new additions, and they have wings already. The next time I update on their progress they are more […]

Royal Cornwall Show

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

The royal Cornwall Show is under way! but sadly I can’t see myself making it down there, nothing to do with the rain! It is just busier than ever and not enough hours in the day. There is now a fox taking an interest in our chickens, we chased him off today and made lots […]

Seriously! Chickens Keep Out

Sunday, June 1st, 2008

Just as expected I am finding it near impossible to make 10 minutes for the Blog, it seems the more things that happen that are worth writing about, the less time you have to write about it, and as blogging is all about whats happening today it seems a lot of interesting jobs will go […]

Eggs

Wednesday, May 21st, 2008

Sure as eggs is eggs May brings a big increase in enquiries for T Shirt printing, and lots of eggs too. The workshops are humming with activity to meet the bank holiday deadlines. A few University design projects to complete for tomorrow, some of which we will try and post to the blog in the […]

Saturday, April 26th, 2008

The old screen exposure box is now so popular with the chickens we have a queue. Nearly all the old laying spots have been ditched, this really is the new place to be seen sitting.

Trends

Monday, April 14th, 2008

It never ceases to amaze me. Peoples tendency to act in unison, independently of each other, how does it happen? Not only that there are certain days which we are busy with enquiries, but that the enquiries follow a particular trend. It is easy to understand why a cafe might be busier around lunchtime, and […]

Blackwater Studios

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

In addition to T shirt printing Advertees also exhibits photography and art within its design studios, we have been showing surf photography by Tony Plant for some time now and will continue to show the stunning large format prints in 2008. Joining Tony’s work this year will be paintings by Lucy Brown. Lucy’s large pastel […]

Recycling

Saturday, March 1st, 2008

Some times it is very difficult to throw things away, especially if the item has some memories attached to it. An old light exposure unit from the very early days of Advertees has finally been given a new lease of life. This historic piece of equipment has not been used for about 15 years, but […]

Chickens and T shirts

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

Well I guess it’s time to fill out the chicken category with an introduction to the 8 chickens that hang out in the Advertees factory grounds. Big Bob is our rooster and has charge of Momo, Emily, Elenore, Lulu, Louise, Kelly and Dorothy. They enjoy the space, take very little of our time and give […]
