Carolyn Sewell, or Pedestrian Typography as she's known on Flickr, seems to have come to the end of her Postcards to My Parents project, in which she sent a doodle a day to her folks for a whole year. I love self-initiated projects like this that really allow an artist to focus on one thing in mass repetition. Carolyn's hand-written typography that is playful yet elegant, playing with puns and pop-culture references that her parents are apparently hip enough to appreciate, and picks great color schemes for her messages so that no two cards are alike. I don't know how they were made -- the colors seem digital at first, but I'm thinking it's all paint pen on colored paper -- but I love and admire them, and find the whole project very inspiring and meaningful.
