The All-Russian drawing competition of a postage stamp and a greeting postcard for New Year and Christmas among professional artists has already been held for 8 years. In total, the organizers received more than 350 contest entries made in various techniques. Based on the Competition winners’ drawings, two New Year postage stamps have been issued.
The postage stamp provides an artwork by Natalia Shomovskaya: a polar bear with a snowflake.
