My mail art tells a story of an unhappy ending of love, a story that started during a girls's vacation in Paris.
We are used to read happy love stories from Paris, but some reason my imagination created this kind of story about long-distance love. The letters stopped coming from that pen pal, later her lover.
I made the background with cut and glue technique and with stamping and alcohol ink. I painted the girl with acrylics onto it.
I'm linking the piece in the Three Muses Challenge theme 'Mail Art'.

'Postitaide'-teemaan kehittelin tällaisen onnettoman kertomuksen rakkauskirjeiden loppumisesta Pariisin lomalla tavatulta rakastetulta. Yleensähän olemme tottuneet lukemaan onnellisista Pariisin lomista, muua jostain syystä tästä tuli nyt surullinen juttu kaukorakkauden päättymisestä.
Tein työn kokonaan käsin leikkaa-liimaa tekniikkalla, leimailulla, alkoholimusteella ja tytön maalasin akryyleillä taustalle.
Kiva kun poikkesit ja kiitos, jos jätit kommentin 💌
