The Art of Traditional Japanese Postcards
The Japanese people love to create and exchange hand painted postcards with their friends and family in the New Year. Etegami is the art of painting simple objects on rice paper postcards, then adding your own choice of inspirational quotes. Design your own “chop” to sign your mini masterpieces. Share your love and encouragement by sending your artwork to your loved ones.
