Description:

This is a collaboration postcard and swap. It is similar to our regular Pass and Paste postcards (as it will have rounds), but in this series.......all artists will work on one side of the postcard forming one large collaboration of art.
You can start in at any time. For your first round, you will start a postcard. To begin a postcard, address the backside of the postcard to yourself. Divide the writing portion into 3 or 4 sections, for collaborating artists to write their notes, info, etc.
On the front side, the first person will add some Art as a base...can be collage, mixed media, painting, whatever. Each following round, the next artist will add 2 or 3 elements, and then pass it on. When all artists have completed the sections on the back, it is ready to be sent home to the original starter.
If you send a card home to the original artist, you may need to start a new postcard to send to your partner.
The postcards can be any size. They will be mailed in an envelope between artists, until the maximum number of artists/spaces is reached, and then it will be mailed Naked back to the original starter of the postcard. The end result is a collaboration piece of art from 3-4 artists. Have fun.

Very cool but International things get lost. Darn!

@wolfeagle Do we sign up for each 'round'? Or is it automatic? Do you keep signing up until all the spaces are full on the PC you currently have? I guess I am a little confused LOL

JeanetteC... Yes, you sign up for each round. Do your portion of the postcard, send it on, then sign up for the next round. Do your portion on the one that got sent to you last round, send it on... and keep on until it's done. :-)

Ok I am new to this so I made my blank Postcard addressed to may self do I just send that to my swap partner? And then when I get one I add my bit and do I mail that to my partner as well? Sorry I am a little confused.

Oh wait I think I understand the one I get I hold on to until the next round.

Do you think we could start an IG tag for these? It would be fun to see the pictures of the finished ones when they make it back to the original swapper. #SwapBotCollaborationPC or something more clever. Just a thought.
