29 FISH, SEALIFE

plant or animal. Looking for life, if you will, not boats, lighthouses, nautical industry. Those themes will come later

No handmade, no ad/free postcards.

Postcards can be store bought, museum bought, from a postcard box set, postcard perforated book set (neatly removed but may still contain perforated edge), from a postcard themed calendar (I bought a few of these in Germany, not sure if they are popular anywhere else? Cut neatly, of course) new or vintage. Zazzle and the like are also acceptable. Art can be drawing, illustration, painting, sculpture, design, photograph, collage, objet d'art, etc. It doesn't only have to be art from a museum it can be crafts, tiles, architecture, magazine and Book covers, movies, educational posters, other posters, children's book illustrations, reproduction. Vintage ads, etc. Some themes will be specific, such as lady, but. You can send abstract art if you can tell it represents lady/woman or if the title of the piece implies it. Other weeks the topic will be things like blue, or happy, or even a specific type of art or something about the artist. Art can be religious art-any religion and as this is sender's choice only sign up if you are open to receiving religious art. I know I have some to send I've bought in Church and Synagogue gift stores as well as in museums.

Besides museums, bookstores, you can find interesting art pc sets on Amazon, I know in Europe many church gift. Shops/counters sell artsy pcs. Either showing the inside or outside of the church. And sometimes pcs of the religious works in the church or of saints, etc.

International, no exact rating but alll 1's & 3's explained/responded to/working on and I reserve the right to remove swappers if needed. Please only sign up if you're open to receiving a variety of art types as explained above, knowing some may be a bit different. I will angel if you need to rate your partner a 1 - contact me if that is happening. If I need to angel I will try my best to stay on theme but if I have no more that fit the theme I will do profile surprise art card as the angel the best I can.

30 will be boat or ship, thanks to @HelenG6 for suggesting it and thanks to @deesides for seconding that. I love it too 😃

31 will be artsy weather, think if umbrellas, storms, fog, etc thanks again @HelenG6

@deesides has also many more fun themes I will work in as soon as I hunt some pcs! LGBTQ, local art from your town, horse painting, self portrait art, and winter.

We'll do autumn, as well. And Dragon will be in August, maybe for my birthday week or week before 🐲

What do you want to see?

HEADS UP

I haven't yet found this and I'm on vacation, so I may have to change to sender's choice and do SEALIFE in August. I will comment on or before July 12th so it is known before final sign up which it will be. If it is to be sender's choice I will of course change swap name. Sorry for the inconvenience, I'm near the sea so fingers crossed! Just haven't found something SEALIFE that is artsy yet....only touristy, and that won't do!

ack, I'm late on decision time...

I will leave this as sea life. I did find a card to send it is not touristy. However, it's not a very strong Art card like one you would find in the museum. It is a little bit more fun and whimsical.
