USPS — Stamp Art — Mariachi
Digital stamp art celebrating Mariachi from USPS drops Sat, 15 Oct at 8 AM PT, only on VeVe!
Mariachi Stamp Art
Mariachi celebrates the unique traditional music of Mexico that has become deeply rooted in the United States and beyond. Each of the five new stamps features a musician dressed in “traje de charro,” the traditional outfit of mariachi performers, playing one of five iconic mariachi instruments: guitar, “guitarrón,” “vihuela,” violin, and trumpet. The geometric shapes in the background of each stamp are a nod to Mexican villages where mariachi music originated. The digital illustrations started as rough sketches on paper, with the textures and colors added digitally. The artist used vibrant colors that evoke Mexican culture and capture the buoyant yet nostalgic feeling of mariachi music.
Rafael López designed the stamps and created the art. Derry Noyes art directed the project.
