Snail Mail 🐌 💌
It’s fun to receive and send mail. If you’re a friend you probably already knew this because you’ve likely had something arrive in your mailbox from ME! Postcards are a favorite thing for me to send because a few lines, an address, a less-expensive stamp and easy-peasy-pie — it’s done!
The above photo are postcards of some of my marsh paintings. It was the silliest epiphany for me when I realized I could make postcards of my own work! I have bought and sent the entire box of 100 Pantone postcards (it’s fun to choose just the perfect color to send to someone) and at museums I’ve enjoyed selecting books of postcards by other artists to send to friends. But this? What fun — a postcard from Marsha-Marsha-Marsha!
I customized the back because I could. Put the stamp where the star is :) Address to the right side of the paintbrush :)
I love our Mother Earth so I used compostable string to package up these postcards of six unique images. They’re printed on excellent coated card stock locally by Printworks in Walpole, MA, a woman-owned business and my go-to for all my printed everything.
If marshes aren’t your favorite sort of landscape fear not! I have a postcard collection of Cedars — my favorite wee conifer — in all different times of day and using all different and fun colors.
I bet I’ll be sending a lot more mail in the future. They’re on my website under “stationery” if you’d like some, too. Also you can purchase them at Heirloom New England, Norfolk, MA and Custom Art Framing, Norwood, MA. All women-owned businesses and all would be happy to have your support. Thanks!!
