Members Of The Pacific Postcards Team - Series 92

Welcome to the Pacific Postcards Team Meet and Greet.  We have a great team that had start simply as an Etsy Team but has branched out into  G+FacebookTwitter and Pinterest.  We would love for you to join are team and help promote New Artistically designed or reproduced postcards, collecting vintage and antique postcards, creating digital art, and anything to do with ephemera and vintage imagery.

First I would like to introduce myself, Colleen (Captain) and Frances (Leader) of the team:

"First a brief little introduction: I grew up a Midwest farm girl from Wisconsin but through a series of moments of self discovery I have since moved to California and live the city life in the Palm Springs area.  I live in a lovely contemporary home where my husband and I have designed a small but very beautiful Japanese Garden.

Unfortunately, though, the contemporary look does not blend with my passion for vintage and antique Victorian froufrou.  So I have created for myself a virtual world with my shops.  I welcome you to my attic filled with all the treasures found and creations made especially for you..." ~Colleen Cornelius

"I create mixed media, collage, folk art, religious icons, jewelry with a twist, paintings & digital art. Frida Kahlo has long been my muse and some of my art is inspired by her colorful life and paintings. I also enjoy dressing up in costume for any occasion but especially for Day of the Dead, Dia de los Muertos celebrations and of course as Frida.

Hunting for treasures at flea markets, thrift stores and antique shops is also a favorite past time and I often incorporate these objects into my art..." ~Frances Perea

"I am passionate about being a good steward of all I've been given--thereby, using, selling and purchasing upcycled, thrifted, salvaged, handmade, homegrown items and food. 6:28 refers to Matthew 6:28, which I see as a verse about celebrating God's goodness and being thankful for all He provides. That's what I'm about!" ~GracieDukes

"I use lines, patterns and colors to create DestinyArt for people. That is their name surrounded by a picture of who they are. I also create paintings that illustrate the meaning of a word or phrase like 'hope' or "Why do you always complicate things that are really quiet simple?"

Relatively new on DestinyArt is rings, bracelets, necklaces and key chains out of silverware. The same as in my artwork I create jewelry to call out the gold in people. That's just what I love.

I was creating ever since I remember and it kind of didn't matter with which material. I discovered to paint with ink, watercolor and fluid acrylics - and I love it. And as it seems that I am not the only one I started to sell my artwork. Here we are :)" ~Miriam

Tropical Hideaway Island Art Greeting Card by Dotty Reiman
Tropical Hideaway Island Art Greeting Card by Dotty Reiman

"Prints and Paint is an online store for Artdivas.net. A mother and daughter artist owned business. Mom, Dotty Reiman is an award winning watercolor artist and daughter, Tamara Kapan, paints with acrylics often adding other mediums such as glass and minerals. Our dynamic and diverse styles reflect our varied interests from ocean waves, equine and western art, and photography.

We live in San Diego County and derive inspiration for our coastal, surf and wave art from living near the beach and our travels to tropical areas. Dotty owns two quarter horses and spends time riding when she is not painting or playing with her grandchildren.

Our goal is to offer both one of a kind original paintings as well as a comprehensive line of fine quality signed print and stationary. Our prints are hand printed by us using the top of the line HP printing technologies and HP Vivera Inks. Our printer uses 12 inks to achieve richly colored heirloom quality archive prints.

Each and every one of our items is proudly made in the U.S.A. We hand frame every piece of artwork with the highest regard for quality and craftsmanship. Our frames are crafted in the United States by a reputable frame manufacturing company that we have been working with for several years. They too have a high regard for quality craftsmanship and we are proud to be able to offer their unique line of frames as a compliment to our artwork.

Our line of greeting cards come blank on the inside ready for your personal sentiment and include both envelope and clear cellophane cover. Our greeting cards are printed both here in our studio and with an outside printing partner using tried and true practices and craftsmanship. Every card is hand scored by Dotty or myself in our studio. We carefully place an envelope in each card and package it a clear cellophane cover.

When you order from us you will receive personal service with attention to detail and quality. We understand that art is a personal purchase and are available to answer your questions and to offer customized sizes and framing. We are happy to help you find that perfect gift or addition to your art collection.." ~Tamara and Dotty
