Mail Art Wave from the Webb Telescope (2022) 

[design by William Mellott & The Sticker Dude]

...life imitates AI imitates life imitates art imitates AI imitates...

i really appreciate Fike's feisty sense of humor.

my idea of a Toucan Breakfast is a bowl of crunchy Froot Loops (the bowl in the photo on the lower left appears to contain a chewy hybrid of gummy worms and Good-'n-Fruity) ];-)

+ a very snazzy…

sub # 6188

absolutely fabulous! the other side conveys Dickens' 'laughter and good humour' (sorely needed).

keep the subreal alchemy coming!

this card brings to mind a certain song (see my comment below).

some pretty cool artist- and rubber stamps on the other side of the card -…

two lovely creations featuring plain brown wrappers -

and the envelope…

charming winter scenes interrupted by a holy baby (although that wig is def not purple).

what you can't see in this photo is that there's a hole cut out of the original postcard, and the religious icon has been inserted there, which is why i'm writing 'holy baby' (aside from the halo, i mean). danke schon…

"Monkey III: Cappuccino II" (8/16) - 'Little monkey / Greenspace / Jump in the air'

this arrived along with a lovely multi-media postcard (both-sides-now shot) -

this could have been…

"Abstract Poem" - another taste of VisPo, plus a full pane of artistamps commemorating Emanuela Biancuzzi -

- and some other Mail Art omens - …

well, here we are (like a) sloth (in the) vortex

[according to the envelope, at least]

those nine words under the cube remind me of a postcard i had a loooooooong time ago, which read "i never expect my friends to be interested in what i do" - a good reminder from time to…

a large postcard (by jjD) from the 91eme Salon des Artistes Méridionaux (Toulouse, 2020)

did this image originally appear on a public wall? i hope so! it arrived along with another smaller postcard:…

an intriguingly mysterious collaged ATC, + PS + PS ...

(= Paper Samples and Postage Stamps) these raw materials beckon like an invitation. fear not; eventually they will find their way into future…

my mailbox runneth over!

not just an old issue of  "News of the Weird", but also a make-your-own bird conversation, a catalogue of Crevicist publications, a survey, and a special leopard envelope, which in turn, contains - …

Catherine sends New Year's Wishes - yes i'm still way behind with blogging incoming mail - and a delightful assortment of printed matter. i'm in awe of the prolificacy of Luna Bisonte, not to mention the funds required for so much color printing. i like the chalkboard drawings on the cover of the bookie "Root Soup" (a pithy little story by Jennifer Weigel,…

ocular proof - Jokie finally made it to the National Postal Museum (part of the Smithsonian); on the postcard's other side, he printed a peck of purple peppers. i do hope the US Postal Service does not become a relic, as happened recently in Denmark...…

another fabulous collage from Ms. Reed; this one is titled "Rise II".

oh and the envelope is pretty fabulous as well!

{interested folks may wish to visit the "Melanie Reed…

more (hidden) EAT ART!-themed cards, including a Cerealist work.

who wants mail?

i'm guessing those are postal receipts taped together to form the background of the collage. added bonus - two ATCs, one of which features Mindaugas's signature spray drips.

and speaking of signatures, this mailing also contained a whole posse of robots/superheroes/transformers created by Zygimantas -…

this heart-warming packet came in closer to the beginning of the year; please forgive the delay in posting!

new year's wishes accompanied by a fantastic assortment of paper goods -

always a…

a postcard in honor of Steve Willis, Cascadian zine artist; too bad it suffered some postal damage ]:-(

there's not a lot out there on the web about this guy, but i did track down this old article:…

belated thanks for the new years' wishes! and WTF is totally right on ]:-(

Peter is not only talented, but generous too - there was an envelope inside the envelope -

- filled with…
