This week I got a bit richer. Grigori sent me these very colorful Fluxus Bucks. I had to check out what they actually are, and found a whole world of arty bucks. As you probably know there is a group dedicated to them on IUOMA and hosted by Ruud Janssen, check it out here. These seem to be from Julie Jefferies aka. ex posto facto, miss Fluxus Bucks herself. A couple of them seem pretty "done", I might send them back to…

For The Love of Cats - Mail Art

Not to be forgotten and much much to do!  I have many pieces to scan and get up on the blog ... but wanted to

thank those who contributed and to let you know there is a little pile next to the computer that needs revealing!

Thanks everyone ... keep em comin'  !…

THIS IS EXCITING!

Austin has sent me many works over the last several months.  He developed a beautiful signature style that is all his.

I love this path your on Austin.  Yes, I promise to PAY ATTENTION.  Thanks much…

Thank you Angie for your lovely Mailart!…
