i don't know much about art really.

i only started making art on a regular basis around february!

i used to write poetry instead, but i never went to school for it.

according to standardized tests, i'm very much a math and science brained person,

and i originally went to school for computer science and have been in and out

several times at several schools but am still only a college freshman!!! ;-D

 

i can't say i enjoy to travel nearly as much as you,

but i have been to a lot of different states in the past.

mostly i stay home or if i go out, i only go as far as a skateboard will take me!

Yes, I am now trying to return mail art back so I am posting here, but I am also not too active here in IUOMA, because I am trying to sell other art that I made at school and I am more interested in making traditional/contemporary art than just mailing each other. But I know about mail art, because I also went to San Francisco Art Institute a bit and learned about Fluxus and 60', 70' American conceptual art, so I do enjoy the concept of mail art too.

I think I am with there idea, I want to go forward with book art and collage that I have learned from them.

I do know pamela but I just know from IUOMA and also her facebook. Maybe next time I go to San Fran, I will try to see her then.

Yes, I fist went to San Fran (from I received my scholarship from AAU) I did not know anybody. But now I know many people there street vendors, art teachers etc. Some people in the city are snoby or not friendly, but basically I think people in San Francisco are friendly. I think book artists are friendly, and it is easy to get to know, even foreigner like me. Maybe some people are interested in Japan and Japanese culture and stationaries for making art. I heard that Pamela also has been to Japan.

 

Actually I used to go to IOWA long time ago. My mother used to teach English at home, and she leads exchange students for summer, and she used to stay with a professor of University of IOWA, so later my father and me went there too.
