I have always admired the art from postage stamps. Living in the Uk, postage stamps are in use everyday, the postal service is very active here ( since it is the country where those were first created) and you can always see the new designs circulating, and be surprised by the postage stamps attached to that letter or card you just received. For this adobe live stream session I wanted to create a small postage stamp collection featuring subjects that I am interested about and also create a little campaign that could circulate in this lovely medium.
I developed 3 different designs in illustrator that together created a little campaign. Then I worked on the sketches, cut and paint the paper pieces, photographed them and collaged them digitally in photoshop. Below you can see the process and examples.
This new technique seems very interesting an useful for my work, allowing me to produce quicker results with the help of digital tools. I will be adding more subjects and elements to this new category.
