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 DKeys on June 8, 2014 at 3:52pm: poor dumb lady walking through the drive thru ATM. You missed the real treasure--look behind you...a bottle in a brown paper bag

Comment by DKeys on June 8, 2014 at 3:32pm: yes---I really found this

Comment by DKeys on June 8, 2014 at 3:27pm: trashpo from Margueritte Keen and Jon Foster!!! I love them both and Jon's is very unique in that he says it is made from Student work

Comment by DKeys on June 8, 2014 at 3:24pm: 3rd in the motivational trashpo series. 100 percent found object collage. The You Are Beautiful stickers are posted all over Chicago. So I am hijacking someone else's project and/or spreading their message further through the eternal network!

Comment by DKeys on June 7, 2014 at 1:27pm: I didn't yet Martha, but will let you know when it does. In places where trash is rare such as Japan, France, and apparently Austria, the value for potential resale in the future is great. We have a rare books collection at DKult complete with dust, poor lighting and bats. will get to work on the DKult patch--delivering a consistent level of mind numbing bliss 24/7!!

Comment by Mail Art Martha on June 7, 2014 at 11:38am: Received amazing trashpo form Thom and Diane, two separated mailings that is, and both are astonishingly brilliant. How am I going to find enough grey cells, let alone trash, to make something suitable for them? Oh, back to the pills. ( by the way, patches are a great idea)

i wonder if my very modest bookie has arrived? I sent it from Austria and it was a very rare piece, trash is in short supply there.

Comment by Dan Mouer on June 7, 2014 at 2:15am: Chocolate lab/pit bull blend, that is

Comment by Dan Mouer on June 7, 2014 at 2:13am: He is obviously a distant cousin to our Bubba, a chocolate/pit bull mix. A real sweetie.

Comment by DKeys on June 6, 2014 at 10:13pm: lol Dan--the beautiful Yellow Lab is Maverick and he is a boy. He didn't mind though as he is a rule breaker. What he did mind was the whole concept of a selfie. He lacks ego entirely
