Mail Art PC Collage – Postman Joseph Roulin by Vincent Van Gogh

Create a mail art PC that somehow references Van Gogh’s portrait of Joseph Roulin. Whether you use the image as a starting point, or rearrange elements, the only requirement is that you use collage technique to create your Mail Art PC. Use your mad skillz to collage, scrap, draw, paint in something or someone to tell a story or create an altered scene.

No smaller than 4”x 6” and no larger than 8”x 10”. Mail it naked (preferred) but ok if you want to check with your partner and work out whether they’d prefer to receive it “undercover.” Ultimately it’s sender’s choice, rate appropriately.

The Roulin family posed for Vincent on many occasions, and it's fascinating to learn about this family.

Here's a link to a public domain image of Joseph Roulin.

Be sure to include your name and the name of the swap so you can get rated. Have fun!
