This ten second clip provides a glimpse of the full 5-minute video entitled “Tony’s Art Cards—Christmas Mailout.”  Sequences of time lapsed images showing the process of creating Abstract Art Cards are intercut with scans of the actual 350 cards produced and mailed at the Post Office.  The following stages are revealed: cutting cardboard boxes for backing; cutting full sized watercolor stock to card sized stock; taping the watercolor stock to the cardboard backings; mixing flour, instant pudding, and water with tempera paint; squishing different colors of pudding paint onto the watercolor stock; placing thirty freshly painted surfaces on a table to dry; removing the masking tape over a week later when dried; trimming the painted card down to size; printing a Christmas greeting on index stock; cutting the index stock to size and folding in half; folding pre-cut cardboard pieces into small boxes; gluing trimmed painted watercolor cards index cards; placing dried cards into one of 70 boxes until each box contained 5 art cards; inserting Christmas greeting into each box; closing, taping, and labeling 70 boxes of cards; packing a group of boxes into a back pack; and lastly, visiting the local Post Office and mailing boxes to friends for the holiday.
