I WANT TO SEND IT TO YOU! ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS TAKE IT!

In attempts to make myself feel less guilty about the lack of mail I've sent this year, I've put together some envelopes to send to some mail buddies and some real buddies. I have some leftover pre-packed packages and I was wondering if you'd want one?

YES, YOU.

The packages contain some or all or none of the following things:

Local art publications and newsletters with beautiful words and beautiful…

I was so honored to receive this parcel. Man, it was full of some goodies:

So bright! The back is very beautiful and funny. There is a wonderful copy of an analysis of ten-year-old John writing to his auntie. "Was he being satirical when he says the towel was the best towel her had ever seen?"…

I think I'm only able a certain amount of photos on each post, so here's so more stuff! take a gander!

As stated in my first trade post, everything is free for a good home, all I ask is for a nice postcard/letter/mailart piece in return.

Please PM me if you have questions or concerns.

Hey guys,

Just cleaning and clearing out some of my massive stockpile of supplies this week (fun way to spend vacation, right??)

There's a lot of stuff I haven't gotten around to using and I thought some of you might be interested. All I ask for in return is some sort of handmade mail. I love receiving postcards n' letters, FYI.

Send me a message letting me know what you're interested in. If you have any questions, please let me know through…

I was just having a little internal mail art crisis of faith - thinking about what crazy stuff I got myself into here, sending absolutely ridiculous things through the post. Do you ever get that? And then I found this letter from Ruud in my mailbox, with sheets to send in with samples of rubber stamps for his archive.  I have not sent anything to Ruud yet, waiting for the right…

I recently jumped into the world of Ray Johnson by watching the fascinating account of his enigmatic persona in the documentary film " How to Draw a Bunny". I 've always known that Ray was the Founding Father of mail art. But I never knew about the details of his life-as-art, as-collage, as-mail-art approach to seamlessly melding himself with his art!

The film is composed of interviews with the many, many art world luminaries and others who sorta knew Ray.Each story they tell, adds a…

I've been busy, the opposite of dead.

A little opportunity has crept up on me and I'M OPENING A STORE! Well, TOMORROW, I`m opening a store.

Pictures to come soon.

Anyways, here's some mail I've been meaning to get around to posting for y'all!

For Dear Stephy, my partner in crime on the west coast.

Something a lil…

Got this from a friend of mine - friends of his are doing a fund raiser mail art show in Tempe, Arizona, USA. That's near the Grand Canyon!

I've been spending some sacred time on mail art lately....I need to have art in my life. Until now it has been most difficult since I had no 'place' to go, to enjoy my friend called "Mail Art". Up until now, every time I wanted to make mail art, or any art for that matter, I had to gather all my supplies, paper, paints, bits and bob's and camp out on the dinning room table and then take it all down just in time for dinner. I'm sure there have been many other's who…

Finally have a chance to post a piece from Sarah I recieved before my sons Make a Wish trip.it is a post card that seems to have a base of a tag or part of a box. Then embelished with more paper and labels.  I love it and the stitching is something I have always wanted to do.

Thanks Sarah!

The weekend found me celebrating Mother's Day with a 48 hour ART-MAKING MARATHON! I was in my element and in the zone! Nothing makes me happier than cloistering myself away with my imagination and my supplies! In that light, I was quite productive. One piece born of this marathon was intended for the Mutter Museum's Skull Appreciation Day exhibit. Many others like it are in various stages. I used a process that I call "Ghost Printing" to achieve the desired effect. Would love to hear from…
