Alan Dunne, an Irish stamp designer, shares his experience and the process of designing stamps for Ireland's AnPost holiday series, 2019. Enjoy the incredible unfolding of national stamps, the high stakes of creating art with national identity in mind and how Dunne, the artist, dealt with the pressure and the constant edits to his work. Bright, colorful and presented with care, this is a great Stamp Chat to watch during the holidays or anytime you need a lift. See more of Alan's work.
Mr. Dunne was also a speaker at the Virtual Stamp Show in August, 2020.
