The 'Winter Woodland Animals' stamp collection, a creative collaboration between Eight Hour Day and the USPS, is a testament to the serenity and beauty of nature. Each of the four Forever stamps showcases a North American woodland animal set against the stark yet enchanting winter landscape. Under the art direction of Antonio Alcalá, this collection encapsulates the quiet, calm and reflective spirit of the winter season. The designers, Katie Kirk and Nathan Strandberg of Eight Hour Day, bring their unique passion for creativity and nature to life in these stamps. As a project born out of a love for the natural world and its seasonal transformations, it reflects Katie's upbringing, influenced by art and science. These stamps, available online at USPS.com, are not just postage; they celebrate the winter's introspective beauty, a dream project realized, and a perfect example of art meeting functionality. |
