Quote from DKult Member Meeah Williams

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

Comment by vizma bruns on March 19, 2012 at 3:54am: Well you'd walk into things too Diane, if you only had one eye!!

Comment by DKeys on March 18, 2012 at 12:18pm: Love it Erni! I wanna go to the trash festival sounds fun as long as its not at a landfill. KDJ anything for you--but you'd really love the one about....so, a penis walks into a bar.....

Comment by vizma bruns on March 18, 2012 at 2:53am: Those glass thingies are tricky, you need access to a kiln and and after melting the bottle it has to be cooled veeeeeeeeeeery slowly, or it will crack! Learnt from experience, shattered glass everywhere.

Comment by DKeys on March 17, 2012 at 9:19pm: Very true Angie. I wish I had learned more about sculpture. Happy St. Patrick's day to everyone . What religious concept does a leprochaun believe in? Gree-incarnation

Comment by Amy Irwen on March 17, 2012 at 3:04pm: Awesome mail art Dean!

Comment by DKeys on March 17, 2012 at 3:00pm: That's really beautiful Erni, reminds me of something your friend the Senator would make. I've done some welding withan acetylene torch, but never worked with glass. it would be so fun

Comment by DKeys on March 17, 2012 at 2:24pm: Found this on the wonderful artisan site, Etsy. I would love to know how to make these. Wonderful recycled trashpo!

Comment by Nancy Bell Scott on March 17, 2012 at 12:17am: WOW! Dean calls them mail art omens, but Diane, your guerilla-in-the-streets descriptor is more apt sometimes, like right now!

Comment by DKeys on March 16, 2012 at 11:48pm: Dean Marks really amazes me with his guerilla- in-the-streets style trashpo journalism. I have NO idea how he created this piece of mail art that arrived completely intact. It even has it's own plug for a nine volt battery. Love this Dean--one of the cooler pieces of mail art I've received!

Comment by DKeys on March 16, 2012 at 11:42pm: Found this great shopping list the other day. Raymond James bought this stuff and I now know way too much about him
