I was invited to create a limited edition design for the Portland Stamp Company's Artist Series. I decided to take inspiration from air mail stamps from around the world, and pair each of the 22 phrases with a bird local to each region. I added a snail in each perforation zone--a nod to the Portland Stamp Company's mascot.

These stamps were printed in an edition of 100 signed and numbered sheets. They have no value towards actual postage--just a fun way to spice up a letter or frame for your wall. It is a digital offset print with spot varnish on each bird and snail. They measure 8 3/4" by 11 3/4" and come in a plastic sleeve with a legend to what the phrases and bird species are. I have 50 sheets to sell, and the rest are offered through the Portland Stamp Company. Click here to read the interview I did with them about the inspiration behind this project!
