Even though it makes sense that we can look on each others profiles, you may want to add your address here and any blogs or other accounts you want highlighted. This way it's in a closed environment and we all get to share.

Because my friend Matt asked me this the other night, I had to think about it. His is painting a blue sky and some clouds, then he waits to see if anything more comes. His skull for Skull Appreciation Day was just the blue sky & clouds cause…Continue

Who will you send your first piece of mail to? I've been thinking about this a lot. Will it be someone in this group? Will it be one of the many mail artists I've exchanged MA with over the years? Will it be one of my letter writing friends, or my…Continue

McFloozy mentioned Quack Day in February and I had a message from Valentine Mark Hermann telling me of an anniversary in February. I figured that it would be best to put all the dates in one discussion, so anyone could contribute and we could all…Continue

Hi Everyone - I have a request - Tricia, a friend of mine, is artist in residence at the local Botanical Gardens & has asked for MailArt Envelopes - please, please, be the nice people you are & overwhelm her - see below for details.................

1. A-I-R MAIL ENVELOPE Project
(A-I-R stands for Artist-in-Residence!)

Before the end of September, I'd like you to decorate and post an envelope.

A MESSAGE FOR NON-AUSTRALIAN PARTICIPANTS – please don’t include real plant material on (or in) your envelope because Australian Customs will confiscate and destroy it, and I’d hate to miss out on receiving it!

These are some of the envelopes I‘ve received so far …. just to show you some possibilities …. please do your own thing in whatever way you like!

Here are the “rules”!

Include this address legibly on the front

A-I-R MAIL Project
Brisbane Botanic Gardens
Mt Coot-tha Road
Toowong QLD 4066
Australia

Put your return address legibly on the back (and please include an email address if you have one)
The envelope can be any size, but no larger than A4 (21 x 30cm). Choose a size that best suits your country’s postal requirements.
Decorate both the front and back of the envelopein whatever way you like, but it must be able to be sent through the postal system. Please relate your decoration to my theme … it’s “The Language of Nature” so you can just include a ‘naturey’ word somewhere, otherwise feel free to take the theme to any lengths your imagination dictates!
Don’t include anything inside (except maybe a piece of card to stop the envelope getting bent in the post). I will be leaving the envelopes sealed, and binding them with rings on the left-hand side.
Post in time to arrive by 30 September 2012

Comment by Mim Golub Scalin on August 11, 2012 at 7:02pm: I can't believe I made the commitment for another 365. I mean, I was sitting in Chicago at my friend's house and I just made a piece of Mail Art and numbered it #1 - oh dear, I'm in for another year long project (& beyond probably.) For now, I'm making one a day, okay I might sneak in a 2nd each day. So far I've made and posted daily but haven't sent any out. What's with the delay? I'm on it this weekend for sure. In the mail! 365.2 is on it's way!

Comment by andytgeezer on August 11, 2012 at 6:16pm: Oh wow. I love the fact that there are so many folk with numbers above 365. I'm going to release the first "proper" Newsletter shortly. Do give me some feedback if you get it!

Comment by Mary Jo Cartledgehayes on August 10, 2012 at 8:30pm: After a wearying hiatus, I've posting art received in the spring from Kerri Pullo, Mim, PostMuse, Giuliana, Laura Podob, Amy Irwen, Cernjul, Angie, ChaosAtlanta, Cuan Miles, dosankodebbie,Laura Ray, Marcia, Marie Wintzer, and Daniela Quadros. http://itsonlyabook.blogspot.com

Comment by Rebecca Guyver on August 5, 2012 at 2:41pm: I'm not very observant!

Comment by Rebecca Guyver on August 5, 2012 at 1:15pm: Are you back too Angie?
