Altered Vintage Postcard acrylic paint graphite and ink

I used acrylic paint, pencil and ink on this vintage postcard depicting a restaurant to add a little more life to it. Mailed inside an envelope because I was too attached to risk letting a postal machine harm it.

Comment by Minneapolis Gnome on March 3, 2016 at 5:05pm: Yay! You like it! Thanks Toni and Finley - I thought nobody was going to notice this. I bought a lot of vintage postage cards on Ebay in order to paint and draw additions on them, so there is much more to come along this vein.
