Received MA - Ptrzia Tictac

Wow - a fabulous package from German artist Ptrzia Tictac. An altered postcard with a picture of the word, "Irony" and the letter 'Y" cut out to reveal a statement by Victor Hugo.

Received Art Mail - Cascadia Artpost

Am always excited to receive political MA that speaks to contemporary issues. The state of affairs here n the USA and our dependence of oil is obvious. As an outsider now living in the USA, I am often quite shocked by the difference in attitudes between Canada and the USA. Yet, we Canadians are equally dependent on fossil fuels and contribute to…

1st International Show of Mail Art and Visual Poetry in Puerto Rico

Mankind is now sinking in a globalized society within an economic crisis, not as a result of the financial

debacle, but by the humanist crisis provoked by man himself. We have a

crisis of values, a cultural crisis and an ecological crisis, among

many others. As citizens of the world, we must bring awareness and

social responsibility to our…

Death all around me, Life surging inside... this is the crux of being human.

Some updates...

My sister-in-law died on December 9th at home with her husband as was her wish. We had a wake on January 10th where many came to celebrate her life and share the loss. There was a tribute by 35 horses and riders! It was awesome. Many people who knew her but didn't know each other had a chance to meet, including relatives. There is a link to a short video of the horse parade and tribute on Jessica's… Continue

Disappointing 30 hour drive to Miami for New Bravo Show

On Sunday, I drove to Miami from New Orleans for a casting call in hopes of getting on a new Bravo show. Driving to Miami took about 13 hours but it felt like 5 hours because I was on a high and all I could think of was winning the hearts of the judges. The show will be titled "Untitled Art Project". I guess its something similar to what would be a "Top Artist" type of show. I would be competing with a few other artist in a reality show/drama. I arrived as number 25 of about 100 other artist… Continue
