Molly Rausch: Postage Stamp Artist

"Molly Rausch: Postage Stamp Artist" is a film by Stephen Blauweiss.
Molly Rausch is a postage stamp artist. Don't misunderstand: She is not in the employ of the United States Postal Service. Rausch uses stamps as a jumping off point for miniature paintings that surround the original image. It's a mischievous mimicry, akin to what children do when they stare at a painting and imagine what's beyond its edges. In Rausch's case, her technical acumen takes the appropriation way beyond mere child's play.

This is extraordinary! Really! I also love Cinderella stamps. Little works of art and wicked imagination. Always something new to learn on the “series of tubes” that is this glorious electronic encyclopedia. Thanks!

Thats so cool. I too see stamps as works of art especially those in the 1930s to 1960s. I want to blow some stamps up to wall hanging size but unsure how best to do this.
