For the class project students will be creating a set of four postcards that tell the story of where they currently are in the wild world. Students will be guided by each video lesson to create the following deliverables:

L O C A T I O N: The location that's being represented in the set of postcards
B A S I C T E C H N I Q U E S & C A T A L O G: An exploration of the medium, as well as save-worthy marks and textures
R E F E R E N C E P H O T O S: Royalty free images and/or self taken images to be used for creating postcard artwork
T H U M B N A I L S: small, explorative drawings, void of fine detail, that provide a skeleton for the final artwork
F I N A L P O S T C A R D A R T W O R K: The final product, a set of four postcards
