It’s Fathers Day….

…here in the UK today so what theme could we pick for Sunday Postcard Art but ‘Fathers’.

I went vintage for my offering this week using a copy of an old family photo as my main image. The picture was taken on the beach in Yarmouth  in the spring of 1921 and shows my grandfather Sidney with his first child William.

Over the Rainbow……

…..is the theme chosen for us by Fatma on Sunday Postcard Art this week.  I started out thinking of doing a thoughtful kind of card, thinking of the words to the song ‘Somewhere over the rainbow’ but nothing seemed to work so ended up going for rainbow colours.

I’ve made two this week. The first is a hand drawn rather zany rainbow bird on a background done with childrens blow pens! ( I tell you if anyone could have seen me and Mandy making these backgrounds the other week when I went over to see her they would have died laughing!)

 The second postcard is a bit different for me, been playing and experimenting with digital art recently so here’s a digital postcard…..
