Jing Jing First USPS Stamp for Winter Fun 2014 Collection

Aug 26, 2014

Jing Jing was a stamp collecting nerd when she was a kid, so it's really exciting for her to finally have the USPS use 2 of her images for their Winter Fun 2014 collection out Oct. 23rd (Jing's images are of the girl and snowman and the girl making a snow angel):

From the USPS on August 21st:

"With four playful designs, Winter Fun celebrates some of the season’s most enjoyable activities: ice skating, making snow angels, building snowmen, and bird-watching.

The art for the ice skaters design was painted with acrylic on plywood with a dry brush technique to give the illustration a textured, folk-art feel. The other three were all hand-sketched and then digitally manipulated.

Art director Ethel Kessler designed the stamps using existing illustrations by Janet Atkinson, Jing Jing Tsong, and Christine Roy.

The stamps will be issued at the ASDA stamp show October 23 in New York City."
