I like to see what people are doing as art and share what I am doing. I like to meet people and get to know them. [DISCLAIMER: tho I am called a mail "artist", I 'cannot' draw due to a lack of proper mindset.]

Thank you Fikus for the new mailing. I have come back from two weeks Holiday and hope to catch up and blog soon and respond next week to everybody. I did a lot stuff while sunbathing!
Really enjoyed receiving your cool art--thanks so much! It will be a little while till I can reply because I'm in the middle of a few projects so please don't think I forgot. My husband Dave (also on this site) liked your work so much he posted it on IOUMA Facebook. I too am sad about Steve Dalachinsky--today, September 29th, is actually his birthday...
good to hear from you! thanks for the friend invite. we moved to Hawaii to be close to family, and we love it here. hope all is well with you and yours!
Hi Fike! Thank you so much for the Mail Art and printed Art Cards. I love them! I like Sci Fi, too, but am not nearly as avid a reader as you are. Hope you are well and staying safe. Best Regards, Pam
Howdy, meye [new] ol' Bud; weiser I am now. I have received a package from you, today, 15 Feb 2021. The postmark is from last year! You may have received mail from me recently or you will imminently (or maybe in a few months time!). That envelope is not a reply to the mailing that I received today because, as far as I know right now, I am not a time traveller but time and other things may prove differently. I will reply to this one quite soon because I like it a lot and have much to say regarding it. Thank you. Mel Anie (PS. I still can't post or see images on here so you are just getting lots of words from me. Oh dear.)
My step-daughter-to-be wears a pair of Fike brand Nike knock-offs when she's not wearing the actual Nike's I bought for her last week. They always make me think of you.
Hi there Ficus, and thanks for your comment! I'm looking forward to discovering what you send my way, whenever that happens to be! I'm adding your address to my list, so you can expect something in your mailbox as well.
Hi there Ficus! Thanks so much for the delightfully decorated envelope of art and your letter! My reply will be headed your way in tomorrow's outgoing mail. Happy Sunday!
Thanks for the mail, Fike, hope you are not overeating the polar bear liver! Like pennyroyal, I hear it can be toxic... I am finally getting caught up with mail after being away for a couple weeks. See you in the mail.
That is great news, Fike! Woohoo! Keep up the good work and thanks for letting me know. And no worries, the round of mail I just sent out is my first since about March. Turns out I can't garden and do mail art at the same time, forget about walking and chewing gum. My list of correspondents may have to be curated... But I will eventually respond to all.
In visual news, squirrels carved my jack-o-lantern for me this year. Nature is lit! ;-)
Thank you! I will send something your way too! I have just finished my studies and am looking for a job. I've spent the last 7 years working with homeless people and people with addictions and mental illnesses.
Hello Fike, Your mail has arrived. Thank you for the playful enclosures. FYI: my iuoma avatar is made from a mask (2006) decorated with dried flowers and leaves, feathers, snakeskin, and semi-precious stones carvings. It represents Gaia, mourning the destruction of the earth.

P.S. Picasso is my ideal: to see things like him, but avoid the trap of being such a person.
P S1 I will post on IUOMA.
PS2 To me, Shakespeare tells something completely different in the sense of "Much ado about nothing" 🤔 duplicitous man 😅..
