Profile Information:

Mail-Artist since:
have decorated envelopes from time to time for some years ...
My Website (without http://):
http://No website
Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
It is such a free open and spiritually democratic way of doing art - making & sharing in one flow. The sharing-showing of my work is of a piece with its making.


I got fired up by Ray Johnson some years ago, reading ' Ray Johnson correspondences by organiser Donna de Salvo.. I return to it again & again.

Also 'Mailed Art in Uppsala Choosing Your Partner / Valj din Partner' , editor Peter R Meyer. In fact it was re-reading this catalogue today that led me to Google Klaus Groh and then found this website !

    Hi Laurence:

    "Bed of illness"? Should I be worried?

    Thank you for your kind sentiments in my loss and also for sending work in to The Face of Jesus Exhibition. Your work was darkened a little so that people could see it on the IUOMA website, but the originals will be put in the show. Thanks again! Sharon
  • ejva:nsva

    so glad it arrived and brought you some joy! will be delighted to see you work one day- and tomorrow's post is sending you a (letter)U!

    Hi Laurence... In regards to my inspiration for The Face of Jesus Exhibition...It is a Show that I have always wanted to do. Many people told me I could not do it because of the subject matter. I stayed true to myself as an artist and did it anyway. There are many Gallery Owners who will not touch religious subject matter especially anything to do with Jesus, which always made me feel bad. So I decided to find a Gallery Owner who would allow me to do the Show. I will let the art speak for itself...the work is AMAZING! Over 300 pieces of mailart as of February 12th. I have watched as God has been taken out of many things in this country. It is my sincere hope that people think about their own spirituality and how we should treat one another while viewing the art in this Exhibition. This MailArt Show is offered FREE of charge to everyone and contains the art of artists/mailartists who created the work from their heart without the thought of monetary reward. What could be better than that?

    Happy Valentine weekend, Laurence!

    Just by chance, at "365" today, Sunday, Feb.13, is "L" day for their alphabet, and I designated this day for YOU at Valentine mailing, too! So, enjoy "L"...it is for you!

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    So glad you had a good day today, Laurence. It's YOUR day ;-)

     I am feeling so much better now, all the germs are gone, just my cough remains, and that will finally leave once i take that first swim in the Aegean Sea! Well, we may have lots of sunshine here in Greece, but in Thessaloniki we have lots of dampness, too...so I am being careful!

  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Thank you, Laurence! You made my day...your "PERASTIKA" greeting came and a great card! I so like those leaf stampings! You are experimenting with wax,too? "Love Layering"! Beautiful! xxx

    Thanks Laurence! You like those bunnies on the beach, eh? Make a few bunnies and rabbits and send them off to Deborah Davidson in Japan. She is having a "Rabbit" project for this year, 2011, the Year of the Rabbit.

    My bunnies are a tape transfer like Jon Foster does,

    then I added some sand, naturally! Fun times!

    Hello Laurence,

    I received your card yesterday and just wanted to thank you. I love the title you used;

    "100 years from today"

    It would make Frank Sinatra proud;)
