Why do I want to promote outdoor advertising?

Outdoor has been my life. Designing outdoor can be very challenging, but when it’s done right it can be almost magical. There’s more to outdoor than just being innovative or having a great tag line. The most inspiring outdoor communicates what the advertiser intended in an instant, and makes you want to look at it. Outdoor isn’t just an advertisement, it’s a unique form of communication using art on a public stage. It takes up a three dimensional space and incorporates it’s environment. I want to do all I can to promote outdoor as a form of art and help educate people about it’s potential.
