From the artist's "Newsicons" series, this digital portrait of Spanish tennis player Rafael Nadal was created following his Wimbledon win in 2008. A limited number of postcards were printed and sold, featuring select digital portraits from the series. These postcards were recently pulled from the artist's vault and are being sold on Etsy for the first time ever. Each postcard measures 4.5 x 5.25" and is printed on heavyweight, one-sided glossy card stock, with the portrait on the front and pre-printed address lines on the back.
