New Year sketch
In France it is customary to send New Year’s wishes. Often the images include Christmas themes but not necessarily.
The rule is that you can send out your wish cards all the way until February 1st. (If you forget, don’t worry! You just write ‘HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!’ and you are off the hook until the beginning of March.)
Here is a card that I am working on for one of my private clients. She always gives me carte-blanche so I am really able to exercise my creativity. I am thinking about coloring their pyjamas with textile prints overlayed. I also wondering if I need to put the Dad next to the Mom rather than the daughter to avoid looking creepy. Any thoughts out there?
Lastly, this will be a volvelle meaning it will be two disks superimposed over each other. You spin it around to reveal happiness messages. (It is similar to a slide rule. )
