Mixed Media Daily Postcards February 1 - 8

 I am working with RED quite a bit this month on my daily postcards,
since Valentine's Day is coming up.

I overpainted a lot of junk mail and old calendars with red and white paints....gold, too.  

Then, I did some primitive printing and am using markers and colored pencils.

I am finding it good practice to have to try for a good design on each 4 x 6" postcard.
I know I am not succeeding with all of them, but I am working at it and feel good about having the daily practice.  I don't mind that these are only intermittently successful because I have no plan for them other than to grow my own abilities.

It is possible that I might someday mail some of these out to people, 

but that is not in the current plan.
