Have you ever sat waiting for a letter to be delivered in the mail?
The anticipation. The excitement.
I can recall distinctly as a child waiting by the letterbox for a letter, a postcard, something, anything…the anticipation of news from faraway places…the excitement of a letter from my Nanna.
Even now, the yearning for news of different places remains strong.
‘Postcards from home’ is a letter to my childhood self. A letter for that blonde-haired, cheeky-grinned five-year-old waiting ever-so-patiently by the letterbox.
With each watercolour sketch, I am transported. Each concertina serves as an homage to the details of places I have visited, places I have called home.
Enjoy!
