Feels like coming home...

...it really does....seeing all those familiar names. Wondering why I didn't sign up before. Oh well, that's just one of those things. Still missing a few names though. Like Byron Black, with whom I exchanged so many mailart things, and Barry Pilcher ofcourse, still in touch with him through snail mail but it would be nice to find him online....you never know...it looks like he is getting himself a computer at last, so that's a start. Anyway, what I was going to say.....it's nice to be here :-)

Mail Art Received

I've started getting some Dear Diary Mail art: got one today from JOLI and I will be sending something animalistic her way. Today I think I feel like a wet rat, but hopefully by the time I make some mail art things will improve. I'm in the process of getting a scanner so I can post the entries
Happy Arting all

Mail art project

What kind of animal would you be?

Sometimes you see a person and you think: " He behaves like a tiger".

Sometimes you see a body or face that reminds you of a mouse.

Sometimes you think: I really want to be a cat.

I'm curious: What animal would you be?

Are you a bird with glasses, a giraffe with a short neck, a gecko with a beard or maybe a combination?

Exhibition at www.joli.nl/twitter and later at www.mail-art.net

Please include your… Continue

APRIL BERUBE-BUG / THE PROCESS

I decided to do a 2-color print for this months Berube-Bug, and I'm not sure what the reasoning was behind adding all of the baby bugs to the "Mommy", but all of the coverage and oversaturation of "OctoMom" may have seeped into my subconciousness as I was drwaing this.

Below is documentation of the process of what it entails to create a 2-color linocut print.

INITIAL SKETCH ON LINOLEUM…
