Dawn Diamantopoulos is a mixed media artist, who hosted a Post Card Swap on Google+. It sounded like fun so I signed up. There weren't a lot of rules, it just had to be an original piece, handmade by you, in your choice of medium. I glued a page from an old book, with the chapter title "Something a Little Unusual", onto cardstock and covered it lightly with gesso. Then added Tangles with a Pigma Micron 01 pen, and shaded with graphite pencil. I found an old vintage postcard in with my Dad's stuff, and copied the lettering from the back side. I finished my postcard and will pop it in the mail later today. The artist I am to send this to lives in the US, so I need to pick up some International postage. Thought I'd better post the photos before I put the artist's mailing information on it. I think I will send it in an envelope, just so it doesn't get mucked up.
Thanks Dawn, for doing this - I can't wait to see what sort of art I get!
I finally received my postcard in the mail. The artist's name is Clinton Mason from Indiana. There were no links to websites or blogs to see his work, and I didn't find him on Google+, but here is his piece:
