a postcard shop
is simple & unpretentious, demanding little of the writer or recipient ~ is a quick way to stay in touch, share art (love, hate, insights, travel, recipes, etc.) ~ is cheap, no envelopes or front-end equipment needed ~ has a small footprint, no need to be deeply eloquent, space constraints inspire their own kind of potent poetry ~ is more economical than a letter, more tangible & personal than text or email & offers the beauty of print on paper ~ can travel great distances to arrive mysteriously at its destination, rarely a clue as to encounters had along the way ~ the paper postcard has a life of its own ~ Upon receipt embellish & send back out, recycle what comes your way.
