The Postcards
Meaning of Postcards
Postcards have been around for centuries, bringing people closer to their loved ones by displaying some of the positive aspects from the places being visited. So to actually bring my own personality and put it into a postcard truly made me ecstatic! I could make who I am and what's inspired me thus far into a visual art to be enjoyed by others.

My own Personal Postcard
I had always wanted to visit London, as the place I've always imagined it should be entices me. I love the beautiful country it is, I love how some of their shows inspired me to go into e-Communication, and their similar yet diverse culture from ours.


Testing the Waters
This last postcard was my first introduction to the postcards, making my last name into a work of elegance and beauty. I had found the same picture of London as earlier, but found my favorite shade of blue. So, I used four pictures that define me in my life currently, that I'm a wondrous, curious person, who loves British things and who loves to read and write. I used layer masks to put the pictures into each letter, and then put a stroke on each to highlight them against the background.
Afterword
I'm proud of my own assignments, and they are beautiful in a way that they represent myself. I wouldn't change much, but the only thing I would would be the colors of some of the highlights. But I loved them, as they could help me make Christmas cards for my family in the near future. I hope to learn more as the new year shifts ever closer...
