Orange lovers
When I was preparing this mail to send to two Orange lovers, I found out that there still is no IUOMA-group for Orange lovers.So here it is! If Orange is your favourite colour, and if you want to share Orange mail with the world: join!(by the way, my favourite colour is Turquoise...)BewarenSee More

Profile Information
- Mail-Artist since:
- 2009 (and not aware being mailarting since 1979)
- My Website (without http://):
- http://heleendevaan.blogspot.com
- Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
- Making illustrations is my life. Love rubberstamps, coloured pencils, watercolour, black fineliners.
And how great to see other people's creative outbursts, creative additions to envelopes. Including those by the postal services (even a pen cancellation can have it's charms). I love the small pictures stamps show. And like to communicate via art works. And isn't it fascinating how snail mail works? We put a stamp and address on an envelope and a whole system of people and transportation means is bringing that single envelope to other places.
Count up all previous words and see: Mail Art is inevitable.
P.S. If you want to create and send me mail art about your favourite (weird or common) animal I will be most happy; I'll like to post it on my http://realweirdanimals.blogspot.com blog.

What or whom is she staring at?

I've sent her to various colleague mail artists.
And great 'this is what she sees' returned home.
Of course new visions still are welcome.
Thank you very much, all of you!

That must be Dean's!
The stamps were added to an enormous box which had succeeded to enter my p.o.box. Too big for the scanner, so I show it thanks to 'real…

The Soccer Field AAP's
Posted on October 24, 2015 at 2:36pm 4 Comments 3 Likes
For some unknown reason I got a note-pad full of soccer field sheets. First I wanted to draw my favourite soccer team in it, but that appeared too much work regarding the little time I have.
Fortunately some colleague mail artists are willing to help to complete the sheets.
I'll post the added-to-and-passed-on-and-returned-to-me sheets in this…

Hello from Japan!
I already found someone to send the Add and Pass sheet but I would be happy to send you my mail art with hand-carved stamps. It would be great if we can exchange mail art :-)

Hey Heleen,
Welcome to the ABC Book! You have letter A
To be clear: you create one page of anything starting with your letter. The size of your page doesn't matter.
Then you send me your page and I add it to my ABC book.
Then I photograph/scan the page and post it online for all to enjoy.
Let me know if you have questions. Thanks so much! Bonnie
