I've been mailing these quick, improvised, hand-drawn doodled envelopes out to random Instagram followers. I'll be doing more of them so follow me @doodlers and let's be friends.
Mixed media. Acrylic, pencil, digital. This is a piece from the book “Mail Me Art - Medium Without A Message” by @littlechimpsociety. I think it was the second call for entries/book.There are now 4 books filled with awesome art drawn and painted on outsides of envelopes and packages by artists all over the world who then mailed them to the UK totally exposed to the postal service. The original was all analog. I brought this into Procreate and reworked it. I may do more when I get a chance but I’m pretty satisfied with it now.
This is a new series of contemporary paper collages realised using a mix and match of new and vintage paper.
I used:
• Vintage paper ephemera (old postcards, paper cuts, portraits)
• Recycled paper from envelopes
• Brand new paper cuts
• For the decorations I mostly used marker pens, stickers and washi tape.
