I have illustrated and designed a series of five postage stamps for Slovenian Post. The theme for these stamps was "Slovenian proverbs and sayings". 

For me, the starting point for this project was Slovenian countryside, where i believe these sayings are most present even to this day. From there, I created characters that are commonly associated with farms, countryside life and old native folklore.

The sayings go as follows:

 "In an emergency, the devil eats flies"

 "When the cat is not at home, mice dance"

 "First sweep in front of your own doorstep" 

 "Haughty as a rooster on a dunghill"

 "See that you don't get off the horse and onto the donkey"
