Lead the Way

In the U.S. it was Labor Day on Monday. I spent the holiday working. My task was to print over 100 postcards with hand carved rubber stamps reminding everyone to vote for freedom, democracy, sanity and our future. Vote Kamala Harris! This batch was dropped off at the post office yesterday.See More

Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
I appreciate thoughtful and creative mail art and enjoy making and sending it. Please note, if you wish to include me in any add-n-pass projects, please make sure they are something with a theme and not simply an excuse to mail flotsam and jetsam around the world. I have receive too many add-n-passes that feel like old fashioned chain letters. When those arrive, I am no longer adding and/or passing.

When I send mail art, I never how the postal service will handle it. Sometimes the recipient gets it with a postmark across the image.   I like when this happens, I feel it authenticates the piece as mail art.…

Found a few very old aerogrammes that I used to send from Istanbul and from Greece,"back-in-the-days".

So a few on their way to you, perhaps they were the earliest form of my "mail art", as there were no greeting cards to be bought back then, so I had to decorate aerogrammes!:

Thanks for the memories :-)
