POSTCARD-Fourth Series

Art, Comics February 27, 2017

Continuing the profile of my art postcards here are some early ones from the years 2007-2009 on the theme of The Seasons. These cards were hand-printed, created from a combination of drawing and printmaking in low print run editions. Once I finished a session it was the end of that particular batch and I would not repeat the design. Cards in an edition are all original prints, but monoprints, i.e. the cards look similar in design and form a series but with no exact duplicates, but variations, thus the label of monoprints. The cards fall within the standard postcard size dimensions of 10cm x 15cm. The orange print marks visible on some cards come courtesy of Australia Post. More information about this project is contained on the three previous POSTCARD posts (see the links below).
