Stamp Designs
Latvia's Post is organizing a competition between Latvian creatives to design a new postage stamp. A very exciting project, I found working on such a small scale quite a challenge. Here's some examples, hope you like them. For some of them I used a starling that is a common and well loved Latvian bird. It always migrates in autumn, but the spring starts with all of them coming back.
Perfect Memories
This project started whilst doing a Saint Martins short illustration course early this year. It made me rethink many aspects of my works ( media, techniques, used materials, themes, etc etc) and challenge them. The first project was calledSometimes it's good to lie? Where we had to explore and present our ideas about lies. I went into researching lies within memories. How sometimes our memories can create a fake reality of an existing place or event. Memory can become stronger and more real than the reality itself.
In this post (from bottom to the top) you can see the development of the idea and change of the used materials and technique. Click on images to enlarge!
