MomKat's Trashpo Boekie

Here's a Greek Dada Trashpo boekie MomKat started -- then I think it came to me and Heleen, then back to Mom, then finally to me. I don't think we can fit any more stuff on or it it, so it and all its lovely "omens" are staying in Oregon at least for a while. I…

ViZma Bruns: Go Aussies

A very small envelope, but with a big impact.

It was loaded with performance enhancing mail art; Inflatable hand (which we'll see again at a later time), a picture of Bruns (a speed-obsessed snail), a Tour de France souvenir stamp, the king of spades, and a tattoo. …

ViZma Bruns: Olden Bells Book or Bad Burlesque award

A boekie which should never be opened in a public Library.

Was I second or third place?  It was all a bit stressful and it kept us at the edge of our seats.

And no, it doesn't stop yet.…

.I got it a long time ago, but since a while I was gone from here, I can say - better late than never. (Latvian saying: Labāk vēlu nekā nekad)

Vizma Bruns: Not all who wander are lost or what to do with your corks

Men are helpless fishes in Vizma's net.  A very funny piece of Mail Art indeed.

So what do wanders do with their corks?

Thank you Vizma.  Very cheeky of…

10 for 10 just like at The Piggly Wiggly~no coupon required~

A one-stop shop for mail viewing and a great way for me to catch up on some overdue blogging so I can have some mailart-making time :)))))))))))))))))))

An eye-popping bubble kissed collage from Angie sans Snooky, I'll bet he would've had something to say about that cat suit.

Now if anyone understands this text, could you send me a translation in French.

Thank you Vizma, lots of smiles…

ViZma Bruns: Hot Stuff and the naked flame

Thank you Vizma, I enjoyed…

From Vizma, the saucy Aussie

I can spot Vizmail straight away and I always start by kicking back and studying the stamped envelope before getting to the innards.  Is that a strange new hand stamp by my label I see?  I like it very much and I see your new Frida Kahlo's on here too.

the octoskellie with all his parts...nice! :)…

Vizma Bruns

I'm very glad that there in IUOMA is such great and optimistic mailartist as she, especially if we speak in common language and we have common origin - latvian.

And now ... some words especially to you, Vizma! : Es jau sen esmu vēlējusies Tev atsūtīt atbildi, bet esmu bijusi šo laiku aizņemta ar studijām, kā arī - esmu ļoti lēns artists.:) Man vajag ilgu laiku, lai izdomātu ko un kā sūtīt konkrētam cilvēkam, jo parasti cenšos pieskaņot kautko attiecīgajai personai un savam…

Vizma Bruns: Bum Roll, Bar code warnings, and Roll up face

What you see is what you get.  This had me laughing on the floor.  A drawing does say a thousand words ... or messages.  Arrives as is without an envelope.  The Postman now wants Vizma's telephone number!

OH yes, very clever to put two toilet paper rolls together.  Now that's thinking!  Or is it just dirty thoughts?…

Diane Keys, Lisa Iverson and a Vizma/Katerina collaboration

First up from Elgin the awesome Interface Trashpo Collage from Diane.  It doesn't look like it even lost any bits along the way Diane. I have no idea how you always manage to make everything you touch so trashionable but pretty soon you may be on the run from the trashpoparazzi.  I'll be proud to say I knew her when...  ;) and I'll be proudly wearing my glittery D-KULT for Life…

Katerina Nikoltsou & ViZma Bruns pair up and the country goes bankrupted

You saw the photos, you read the blogs, but now the Mail Art is the real proof that Katerina & ViZma met up in Greece.  And the mixing was carefully controlled.   Katerina on the front and ViZma on the back, but then again it depends which side you pick up first.

Includes airline baggage tags, food ads and the receipt for a new swimming suit.  LOOK OUT…

The story of the snowman by Vizma :)

In this little matchbox, resting on a bed of wool from her sheep I got this little snowman from Vizma

As I dug deeper I got the story of How the Snowman became an Arac....WOOHOOOOO!!!!!!!!

She says it reminded her of The Monkees guitar and I totally agree.  Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!!!! I've been stamping it on everything around and…

Aussie bark and other fashionable items from Vizma Bruns

The bark is delicate and wonderfully soft (but with inner strength). To try to paint on it is most tempting. 

Lovely fashion…
