Hi there,

I have only recently joined the IUOMA and am therefore still finding my way round it but I thought I would flag up the artistamps I have on the Positively Postal website which you can see here in the gallery along with other pieces of mailart which I am working on (constantly!) to update!

Here I am.

In my Permanent Installation, also known as (AKA) my Studio, AKA 'Val's room at the top of the house'.

Three-and-a-half floors up, where only the cats and I venture.

From deep down below at street level I hear a 'click' that tells me that the mail has arrived at about noon.

I rush down stairs.

The cats follow me -- because they think it's lunch time;

I open the Mail Box, and if I'm very, very lucky I get some IUOMA Mail Art. (If I'm only…
