Hello and welcome to my contribution to Sunday Stamps. It's Sunday morning and I am sipping my coffee. Once again I surveyed the pages of the USA Postal Service and found a set of stamps, just released on Aug. 13, 2020.
There's a little color there, but mostly black and white! These stamps feature the wire sculptures of Ruth Asawa (1926 - 2013), a Japanese- American artist who did drawings, painting, prints, and large public projects. The wire sculptures are shown on the stamps.

A closer view of one stamp:
I don't have these stamps in hand, I am using the images from the USPS website.

These sculptures are amazing!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love that the USPS has 10 stamps in her honour.
These are intriguing designs - looking forward to using them on outgoing mail soon.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen these in person, but the designs seem nice to me, and very elegant.
