One of my goals for 2022 is to post a #KitLitArtPostcard post every month on Twitter. Here's my April digital postcard. That means designing 12 different digital postcards for 2022. Which will give me a range of designs to send out to Art Directors and editors when I do an e- mailing.
Rules for myself are:
• Preferably fresh, recent illustration.
• Has to be an illustration I've never used for a KitLitArtPostcard.
• Post on the Day, the earlier the better.
The pros of creating digital postcards are many. It's free and you can tailor your design to the recipient. No Printing costs. No stamps. No address labels. No waste.
The cons: It's harder to get email addresses for art directors and editors. Hence why #KidLitArtPostcard is such a genius idea for kidlit artists.
#KidLitArtPostcard created by Gina Perry, @ginamarieperry, last spring for illustrators to promote their art on Twitter since the pandemic made snail mailing postcards problematic. Illustrators create a digital postcard and post it on the 1st Thursday of the month on Twitter and now even on Instagram.
