For the most part these stamps are pretty self explanatory. The first one is based off the buffalo sabers, buffalo’s hockey team. This calls on the sports aspect of buffalos culture. The second one is based around chicken wings a very popular meal in Buffalo that was also invented hear, as far we know. I was thinking about doing drumsticks for the picture but I really liked the way the chicken looked. I thought the color red I used might resemble chicken wing sauce. The third picture calls upon the large amounts of snow we get in Buffalo. This is something Buffalo is well known for. The fourth stamp is based around downtown buffalo using the electric tower as it center piece. This was my favorite one and I really liked how the colors came together.
