I find that creating and exchanging mail-art provides an opportunity to combine personal interests in photography, art, and graphic design. But there is a deeper explanation.
Just like any artistic expression, artistamps reinforce personal self-identity by sharing a vision and ideas with others. I value the contacts and the content of postal exchanges over the years, and especially meeting a few of my correspondents in person. The interplay of postal services and the internet have created an opportunity for a network of global democratic expression among at least those who can afford either postage or have access to a computer connection. It is my fervent hope and prayer that our exchanges can also create occasions that help give voice to the visions and ideas those who are unable, for various reasons, to contribute to the network.

Hello, The altered CD you sent me arrived today. I love it. The post office cancelled the "fake" stamps you put on one side twice but did not cancel the "real" stamps that were on the other.
Hi Jack...I have some mail art ready to send to you....although I may not make it to the post office for awhile because of all the snow we are getting!
Happy holidays!
Hi Rachel,
Today was clear and sunny in Seattle, will remain so through Sunday, a most benign Christmas weekend compared to the snow and ice of this time in 2008.

I put your book in my blog and it will get into an eBook later. A book within a book?
I will send you the first watercolour but when I don't know.

Hi Jack - Thanks for being a friend. Next time you pass by Centralia, please stop on by. I can always manage a pie and coffee if nothing else. Would love to chat it up. Just let me know ahead of time. This last turkey day found me with a dreadful cold (or something funky), so this time around wouldn't have been my best moment to entertain. But anytime my friend, anytime. Would love to have you over.
Hi Jack - the Yes Men are wonderful. Great stamps, great presentation. Thank you. I've lost your change of address, will you message me with it please? I have something to send to you.
Hi Jack I have just now received your wonderful postcards, two of them, I am sure there must have been a mistake but never mind, I am very happy with both of them. The stamps are superb too. There are all in my blog now. Thanks so much it was such a lovely surprise.
Jack I certainly will join your project. Plans to sell our Royal Mail are being finalized right now. They promised it would not happen. The first sign was to raise the postage, so the future buyer would tempted by high profits. Be afraid, be very afraid!
