I am so pleased that you were willing to take the time to give these designs a careful review. After I return to the states next week I'll post all the final designs to the blog then send you and the other guest critics a note that they are there. I think you will be able to see the impact you made on these fine young designers. Jeff, the pleasure is all mine.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts and observations with these young designers. The fact that you wrote in Espanol was especially impactful for them. It was great to be able to hand the kids your comments and allow them to read for themselves. Ana was particularly affected, and I think you can see the affect of your comments in her final design which was chosen by the group as their premier series to show the client, and hence the one I placed into the home page of the blog. After I return to the states, I'll post all of the final designs and send all the critics an invitation to see all the results. Thanks again for your participation. I'll see you on twitter.

Between the demands of the workshop and travel to the Guaruma site afterwards, I've been a little distracted. Wish I could have met you in Guate city when I came through. Nancy speaks very highly of you. Perhaps on the next trip. Thanks for your comment Sarah, and sorry for the slow reply.

Bree Hankinson has been doing amazing work with the Santiago bunch. They are taking on paying clients and getting a good start for the design studio there thanks to her work.

The kids actually presented two 3 poster series, one 2 poster series, and three one poster solution. Ideally they would have only presented one or two options and held the others in reserve, but since they had worked so hard the night before the presentation, and they wanted to, we allowed them to present them all. The client was a little overwhelmed, but very pleased and leaning toward the series I posted on the blog. After I return to the states, I will post all of the designs for all the guest critics to see. Thanks Kitty, and muchas gracias for your contributions during the inprocess critique.

The three series now makes perfect sense with the Stop (what's diabetes), Why care and how to prevent it designs. It's a very effective outcome for the client's needs. It's an amazing job what you do around in Guatemala! Jeff, The end result of the posters is great.

I continue to be amazed at the quality of work the student's have produced. With each successive workshop, the caliber of work is dramatically improved. I hope you're feeling very proud of yourself for all that you've acccomplished. I know I'm very proud of you. Great job! Jeff — What another amazing week!
