This illustration shows a white dog with dark spots happily digging a hole to stash his beloved tennis ball. In the distance, his ownerโ€”a young lady in a blue dotted cardiganโ€”is calling him to come home. Theyโ€™re in a beautiful field filled with pink flowers, lush green grass, and surrounded by tall, gentle trees.

A digital illustration of people spending time in a pool: A man with sunglasses is happily lounging by the pool chairs. Next to him is a lady in a yellow coordinate and a big hat sitting up observing the children by the pool. A girl in a pink swimsuit is sitting at the edge of the pool and cheering on her brown dog who's swimming to her from the other side of the pool. A boy in the pool is shielding himself as a girl who appears to be his sister is splashing water to him. Another boy is in a pink floatie observing the siblings.

This month's postcard is inspired by the artists of ancient history. Besides art, history was my favorite subject in school. I was alway fascinated by how much art can tell us about history.
