Liberate Your Art 2014 Postcard Swap

Both last year and this year, I participated in Kat Sloma's international postcard swap.  It's such a great artistic combination of online activity and snail mail.  Kat encourages you to meet a deadline, follow instructions, and get your work published into a postcard format.  O.k., on initial reading, this may not seem like such a big deal, but really people, it is.  It's just another way of demonstrating to our procrastinating selves that taking baby steps forward can help to push a door or resistance down and let your art pour through.

Below are some of the wonderful postcards I received, along with their messages.  I posted the one I sent out at the very bottom.  Join Kat next year yourself, and push your art a little further out into the world!  Click on the link at the bottom of this post.

Mine.  A little something I drew/painted while sitting in my booth at an art show a few years back. I added the following quote: “It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see...”
