The beauty of mail art is that it's largely defined by the artist and within each individual definition there are roads that lead to many other destinations.
Dare I call you Richard, M. Canard? You seem very involved in canards as well as mail art. I don't have 50 years to go, so given the progression of half-lives I'd better get cracking!
Mail Art is a primary factor in determining the nature of energy received from the others, and by exeynsion the mail currents.
08.12.20 Dare Ms. Susan Weisberg, ..."Mail Art is so much more complex and multi-layered than I realized!" A very perceptive statement on your part...& still, you don't know the half of it.---- & while I have been involved in mail art for over 50 years now... I too, & still, don't know the half of it. Best to you. SinCelery, Richard Canard
Thanks, Heleen. Mail Art is so much more complex and multi-layered than I realized!
I saw a question from Susan Weinberg about ATC, bit I cannot find where to answer. So I hope she/you will find it here :-)
Q: what is atc?
A: Artist Trading Card, a small handmade card, size 2.5 inch x 3.5 inch, which you can send to or swap with other artists. Any material is possible (if I read well, you like mixed media, and that is okay, too), if sent randomly and/or spontaneously, and sometimes there are specific ATC projects in which there can be suggestions about theme or material, depending on the project.
It has been inventief by a Swiss guy, and more information about history and more you can read on https://www.artist-trading-cards.ch/artist-trading-cards/ .
These stamp albums with the transparent strips are available at Amazon, I prefer the 16-page ones as larger sizes get too heavy when filled with stamps and covers. They also have nice rice-paper dividers:
I use a stamp album for the small samples I get of artistamps:
but when mail artists send me full-page sheets, then I use the clear plastic in a large binder. Here i keep the original sheets and can easily take them out for making photocopies. Photocopies of these artistamps are often on my mail art:
I also recommend to visit thrift stores, often they have a lot of office supplies that you can use.
