What is Etegami?
Etegami is a traditional Japanese folk art that combines simple hand-painted images with thoughtful words on postcards. The focus is on expression and sincerity, not perfection—each postcard becomes a unique reflection of the artist’s heart.
It's not about perfection; it's about expressing your unique self through your original creations.
