Art Postcards

| Hola, art postcard |
This past week I worked on some new art postcards. For Hola, I drew the portrait with micron pen and added irredescent watercolors. I painted the background with red acrylic and glued circles of accounting paper with my hand written letters.

| Hello I, art postcard |
I am addicted to perusing the second hand store in town. I love looking at the vintage items and finding odds and ends that I need. Last month I found a stash of stickers and rub-ons. For Hello, I used stick on letters and a rub on ribbon. I drew the portrait with black and sepia micron pens.
I plan to do more art postcards along the theme of saying hello. Next one will be with a greeting in Japanese, konnichiwa.
Do you know greetings in other languages? Let me know in your comments.
I love these...very creative! Sadly, I only know a few words in a couple different languages. Wish I knew more : )

These are wonderful! Ciao is an Italian hello.
ReplyDeleteI just know English, and a spattering of Spanish. And in Hebrew hello/goodbye/peace is shalom.
ReplyDeleteYour portraits are lovely. {:-Deb
I like these, Juana, especially the "portrait" at the top--the colors are great!
ReplyDeleteGood Day in Norwegian is "God Dag" and Hello is "Hallo" :o)

Bonjour! (French) Love your cards with simple text and portraits!
ReplyDeleteYour art is very interesting. Classic is the word I would use to describe it.
