Description:

I haven't seen any painting swaps around, so I thought I'd have a go at making one! This is the first swap I've hosted, so please tell me if I've done anything wrong...

Each person in this swap is to create one postcard-sized painting to send to a partner. The 'postcard' size is a guidline - anything A5 or smaller is fine. The subject and style of your painting, what you paint on and what you paint with is all up to you. Just put your heart into it and make something you're proud to send and would love to receive :)

I've made this international as a painting shouldn't cost too much to send anywhere in the world. Please send your painting in a board-backed or padded envelope (depending on whether it's on paper or something else) to keep it safe in transit.

This'd be a really mean swap to flake on, after someone put all that time, effort and care into making a beautiful painting for you. So don't flake. Please.

Anyone with at least five 5-rated postal swaps is welcome!

EDIT I've moved the sign-up date back a few days to try and catch some more people - there's only 3 eligible swappers signed up right now. Please sign up if you're watching, and spread the word about this swap if you can!

I've been wanting to paint a postcard. Also watching till I've sent a few swaps off that I'm already committed to.

I have 4 5-rated postal swaps out of 4 total swaps, lol, that's 100 percent! May I join?

Sure, seeing as it's very close to 5, 100% 5s and we're struggling for numbers, hee ;) xx

im excited for this! should it be a painting on a postcard ( on paper, or cardstock) or a postcard sized painting ( on wood, canvas etc)

@lexieforever - I'm glad you are! It should be a postcard sized painting, on anything you like - paper, card, wood, canvas, whatever :) xx
