Mail art - from Viviana Cernjul

Viviana's envelopes are a fantastic showcase for her art. She is making excellent use of space, on both sides of the envelope, which becomes an extension of what is to be found inside. Or is it the other way around? :-)

Thank you Viviana!…

Greetings from Seattle - from Thom Courcelle

This is another card that really touched me. I didn't know Thom before, I think he is new at IUOMA, and he didn't know me either, but he took the time to make a card and write very sweet and heartwarming words. What a nice way to introduce oneself, really. Thank you so much Thom, I hope you'll have fun at IUOMA. I'm sure you will...…

Received from Karen champlin, USA--Third from the Left

Karen is celebrating a new asemic letter today. She says it always makes her happy. Makes me even more happy to receive it. All the thin layers of line and asemic writing make a fine background for the major asemic lettering. Great work, Karen--thanks!

Have I promised you mail-Art shortly? If so, there's a problem.

Not one of those letters we sent off two days ago actually went with the mail man. Does this person think our artwork's not sendable? If so, any of the other pieces we sent may just have been the fluke!Altho' I did put them in the mail again this AM with a pleasant, peaceful note suggesting these were perfectly acceptable for mailing, I'm not too sure how this will turn out.

The first outing of these letters i thought overlooked, as there had been no new mail left for us that…
