a lick of colour

well here it is: my (very first) stamp design for the dutch post office… something i’ve wanted to design for years

it goes on sale on the 1st of september, the text is a quote by english poet ‘byron’ and the theme i chose to illustrate is ‘writing’ the release coincides with ‘the week of the greetings card’ promotion, more news on this next week…
