00:00 You know Susan, nowadays, just one postcard on social media is enough to get everyone updated.
00:05 You're right, Kim.
00:06 It's easy to share anywhere, right?
00:09 But it still feels different when we're being sent a postcard.
00:12 Now, we can still customize it.
00:16 That's the story of Katrina Son.
00:23 In the past, postcards were a way to say that you've arrived at a famous place or that you're in a place of history.
00:34 But some postcards are extra special because they're painted as if it's a work of art.
00:50 The postcards were painted by Chloe and Kenny.
00:55 Postcard makers started during the pandemic.
00:59 But actually, before that, me and my colleagues were already artists.
01:04 When we have free time, we paint where we want to go.
01:09 It's also a way to relax and unwind.
01:13 The first collection of postcards they sold was "Tampok, Kambayan ng Susugun".
01:19 We printed the first set of postcards for a fundraising.
01:24 Because of the pandemic, many people were affected.
01:29 We helped a community in Susugun.
01:32 So, our first set was "Gubat, Susugun Collection".
01:36 We gave all our earnings to the community.
01:40 Chloe and Kenny traveled to different places to get inspiration in painting.
01:46 When they found a good angle to paint the subject,
01:50 they started painting using watercolor and brush.
01:54 Then, they'll get the details.
01:56 Usually, the size is 4x6.
02:02 That's also the normal size of postcards.
02:07 Our style is watercolor with realism.
02:11 It's very ideal when you're painting outside.
02:14 It's easy to dry.
02:16 You don't need a lot of tools.
02:18 It takes 30 minutes to paint a postcard.
02:22 The original copy can be sold for 800 pesos.
02:26 While the reproduced copies are worth 50 to 80 pesos each.
02:32 We reproduce the postcards to lower the price.
02:40 Aside from selling postcards online, they also have postcards painting workshops and bazaars.
02:47 The event we're joining is called Paper Convention.
02:56 It's an event for artists who make artworks using paper.
03:01 Many of them will choose post crossers.
03:04 It's where postcards from different parts of the world will be exchanged.
03:09 I'm a post crosser.
03:11 It's very unique.
03:13 Not everybody can make mass-produced original postcards.
03:18 We have goals.
03:20 First, we want to revive postcards in our country.
03:24 We want to have postcard designs in the Philippines that are unique and from our experience.
03:34 It's nice to feel the past.
03:39 You can make a work or a portrait using postcards.
03:43 It can bring the beauty of the Philippines to life.
03:47 I'm Katrina Son and this is the story you need to know.
