"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Neil, I didn't know they made Bubba Soda.

I have posted the second installment of the "Decadence of Trashpo" featuring Stephanie Blake, DK, Janine Weiss, Carina Granlund, DharmaDaDa, Eduardo Cardoso & Lynn Radford.

http://iuoma-network.ning.com/profiles/blogs/the-decadence-of-trash...

I have a request. At the end of the blog you will find "A Trashpo Lexicon." This will eventually become "A Practical guide to Trashpo." I know there is stuff still missing. If you have ANYTHING you think should go in the Trashpo Lexicon, can you leave me a note and I'll add it?

 

When I have a better draft, I have DK's permission to move the Lexicon to this group as a permanent DoKument.

Jim Leftwich has posted a great mail-art call for not 1 but 4 different events across the globe.

In addition to mail-art, you can send event scores, writing, and even get involved in performances via Skype.

IMHO, it would be great to show support for this huge effort he is involved in by sending him your best Trashpo. I don't think we'd be here if it weren't for Jim. So please check it out:

@DV : "Ty-Po too" - lol!

Comment by DKeys on June 9, 2012 at 3:10pm

That's hilarious Lisa! And btw thank you for the fantastic card with the Dragon's Blood Trashpackaging!!  Pigs rule. 

DVS--I like wondering if this poor man (I'm assuming that because it makes me happy) was sent to the store for papper plates and jelly yet could find nothing of the sort, since all he saw was paper plates and came home with one single thing of jelly "They had no papper plates honey" He's sad and dejected and sent back to the store

That's a beauty DK - great minimalism. "Papper" plates. Ty-Po too.  Just excellent.
