Where I am and where I want to be- the postcard project



Postcard Grace is the only power

Welcome to a new project. It’s about art, communication, creativity, fun and connection.
The great thing is, you can make as many postcards as you like and can send them to more than one person. Of course you also can only make one. But maybe you will have a creative flow, once you have started. Another great thing is: It’s cheap, because you only have the mailing costs for a postcard.

This is how to do it:
Take a blank cardboard or a piece of paper in a postcardsize (at least 10x15 cm) and create some kind of artwork on it. It can be anything you like, a drawing, a collage, a painting, printing, mixed media art etc..Anything that can be send out later. (Very much like an ATC)
On the flipside you write the address and the answer to two questions:
Where are you now? (Describe the place where you are right now, what is it like? How do you feel about it?)
Where would you love to be? (Describe your dream place, which can be real or unreal, on earth or somewhere else)
The artwork on the postcard can relate to the real or the dream place, but it’s no must. Do as you feel it is right for you.
Don’t forget to write the sender on the card.
Browse through the list of addresses and send one postcard to one of these participants (or more cards to more participants).

If you get one (or more) postcard(s) from the other players, let them know via e-mail, that you’ve received it. Maybe you like to start an exchange about places to live and places to dream of with the one who has sent or received the card.

The project will start on October, 1st, please sign in now. Send your mailing address to lawendula@gmail.com.
On the starting date I will all send you the list with the addresses, so everyone can choose one or more ladies to send the postcard to.
