friends & faux - who's next?

Friends & Faux has an ongoing wandering postcard project. I did one a month or two ago and Peggy recently sent me another. I drew a detail of a sunflower directly on the card, figuring if if I royally screwed it up, I could do something else and paste it over the top. But it came out fine. Used Pitt Artist pens and Copic markers.

Then Rhonda came down for an over-nighter and I talked her into doing one, so now I need to send it on to someone else. Any takers? No worries about having to make original art just for the card, you can isolate a scanned piece of art you made a while back and glue it down. Just has to be a neat little piece of art. And then you can mail it back to Friends & Faux, no need to find someone to take it next. Please reply to this post with a "yeah, me!" or email me at maugreall at gmail dot com.

The second from left in the top row was almost completely gone by the time it got to me. Really a shame cause it looked like a cool one. Hoping my drawn-right-on-the-card survives better.

I drew an artiststamp for one of friends&faux's traveling postcards. See it here. Mine is the bottom right stamp - the bird's head.

I was unaware of this project until one of my swap buddies Peggy asked me if I'd like to do the last spot on the card. I'd never made an artiststamp before but figured it out easily enough. The cards start off from the friends&faux person and then go from artist to artist until they're full and the last person sends them back home. Lots of 6 degrees of separation stuff going on here. I don't know the person Peggy got it from, and she prolly didn't know the person that the person who sent it to her got it from.

The site is full of returned cards. Kinda fun to scroll thru and see all the various ways people made stamps for them.
