It's always a good day when your work gets recognized in Print's "Daily Heller" column. Thanks Charlotte Beach for the nice piece on the new Lowriders stamps!

USPS Lowriders Stamps, Cruising into a Mailbox Near You – PRINT Magazine The USPS has released new lowrider stamps as an homage to Mexican American/Chicano cultures.

What a playful, enlightening, and inspiring adventure it was to collaborate with the masterful illustrator Chris Ware on these new stamps commemorating 250 years of the US postal service.
Ware's contribution was to create an engaging homage to the daily routine of a mail carrier, embedded within an urban scene that changes with the seasons. Within the 20 stamps are multiple references to the USPS, but also little "easter eggs" for those who look closely. Check them out!

On April 25 at the "Gathering of Nations" in Albuquerque, New Mexico, the USPS unveiled a set of four stamps commemorating Powwows. We had the pleasure of working with Cochti Pueblo artist Mateo Romero to produce these stamps. Along with drum circles and singing, Powwows often feature dancing. The stamps show dancers performing traditional dances in their regalia. We're honored to have worked on this project presenting contemporary Native art and culture.

Today is the First Day of Issue for the Lunar New Year–Year of the Snake stamp. We're grateful to Fast Company for this nice write-up. Bonus points for references to Secret Societies, including "Skull & Bones!"
