This week’s Sunday Postcard Art challenge was “Me.” I'm a private person, so I almost wasn't going to do this challenge. But then I decided to make a mix of themes that I like, to show me. This postcard has a blend of celestial, astronomical charts, medieval, illuminated manuscript writing, and rhinoceros. Other themes that I like are art deco, art nouveau, vintage, stained glass, the ocean/water, futuristic (science fiction slant), Old World Maps, monsters (sea monsters, dragons), Celtic, Moroccan, Oriental, magical/enchanted, mythology, dark (skeletons, witches, devils, wizards, druids, occult, tarot). I've probably left out some too.
I've been working a lot lately, which has hampered my creative side from coming up with good ideas for challenges. But I'm grateful that I have a job, because I know people who are underemployed and unemployed.
