020a - Andy Murray collage and watercolour
Quite out of the blue today Elena and I sold a set of Andy Murray Olympic stamps on eBay. Whenever we sell anything online, we always pimp up the envelope of add an additional illustrated insert. This was an insert, watercoloured and collaged. I didn't want to waste me time drawing faces, so thought I'd put in a random face as I did before with the Olympic rowers. I rather like this as a stylistic device, so will do the whole series like this.

The countdown begins one year til London 2012 27 July 2011 (#154)
It is now just one year until the 30th Olympic and Paralympic games kick off in London so with a bit of help from Photoshop and the Positively Postal logo plus some Royal Mail stamps I've made this postal Olympic themed countdown piece.
