DOORS - Post Card Swap - Postmark by Monday, November 25th

I know we have done a DOORS-themed group swap before, but for some reason I am unable to find it in the archives.  So, let's do another one!


There are many options as far as media/technique:  collage, sketch/draw, rubber stamping, painting, etc.  You may portray an open door, a closed door, many doors.  A trap door.  A bird cage door.  A barn door, revolving door, screen door.  Some foreign countries have many very colorful doors!  And yes, there was a rock n' roll group called "The Doors."

It's especially nice to include a note or quote on the "message" side (left side) of the post card.

 Check out DOORS ART on the Internet for more ideas.





These abstract door designs were made by Renee B. 







Years ago I put together a home-made book with 5 themes, one of which was DOORS.  I had a lot of fun with it!  Here are some pages:

Make 1 - 4 post cards to be exchanged with designated swap partners.  Send them in with sufficient postage enclosed for your art to be sent along.  Also please include self-address labels for me to affix to your exchanged art.  Thanks.

NOTE:  Your DOORS design does NOT have to open. If you DO create doors that open and shut, I highly recommend we treat them as unmachinable art, using either cellophane sleeves or paper envelopes rather than sending them along with no protection.   I do have a supply of cellophane envelopes...
