V+H -- Altered Famous Painting Mail Art Postcard

This is an international swap with one partner. For this swap, create a postcard for your swap partner using an image of a historic famous painting as the foundation. Let your card tell a story, share a recipe, a humorous caption, poem, design, pattern, etc. Size should be minimum postcard size, no smaller than 4”x 6” (A6) and no larger than 8-1/2”x 5-1/2” (A5).

Mail it naked (always my preference!) but do check with your partner and work out whether they’d prefer to receive it “undercover.” Ultimately size is sender’s choice.

Be sure to include your name and the name of the swap on the card so you can get rated.

Have fun!

The swap header is a mail art postcard featuring Ginevra de’ Benci by Leonardo da Vinci, and includes a character from the cover of a pulp fiction crime novel.
