Mail-Artist since:
Block print postcards since childhood; Etegami since 2000
My Website:

Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
I do Etegami. Etegami is a traditional Japanese folk art that combines ink brush drawings and words on washi postcards. Until very recently, I didn't even realize that Etegami was a small part of the global tradition called Mail Art. Seeing what Western artists are doing with Mail Art has been an incredible stimulus to me. And while Etegami will always be my first love, I'm having lots of fun experimenting with collage and mixed media.

hi debbie! oh yay! i am so happy you enjoyed my mini book! it was really such a blast to create. i saw on your blog that it has inspired you to dabble in mini book making as well, i can't wait to see what you come up with! and actually, i was inspired to create my mini book after receiving one from a fellow IUOMA friend. awesome how inspiration works it's magic! little warning... they are addictive! i'm in the process of creating my second mini book. a different theme and a little more elaborate with the collage and such, but will definitly sent a copy your way once it's done!

take good care

Hello Deborah,
Glad my mail art has arrived. See, that was much faster than
if it had come from Athens. Me happy now.
I started "carving" some old Staedtler "raso plast" white erasers
when I saw on your blog about the "ranko". It is so easy to carve,
I use little lino-carve tools, and I can get 6 surfaces carved on each eraser! 'Did a series of tiny "black birds" on the small ends of the erasers,
and trees, seasons on the long sides. It really is something that you
started me doing....see? now I-owe-you :-)
Mail art exchange is limitless!

"Then I'll be Happy" was an Artist Trading Card I made from recycled mail-art and my own stickers. I printed up a few as postcards and laminated them with a texturized film. The card you received had either a linen or a leather finish.

I do find that lamination increases the odds of my art surviving the postal process.

I recieved your postcard yesterday - thankyou SO much! It was so great to get it and it's really beautiful, even if it is on your phobia. I'll upload it onto my album soon.

Hello Deborah,
Yes, I try to add a litle arrow and "top" on the back side of
the card...just in case the "direction" is not understood :-)

Join us at IUOMA 1 year celebrations today!
We are having a "party"!
Agapi,
Katerina
