A corner of Greek spring from Katerina Nikoultsou

How lucky to have this view and be able to paint it. It's just not the same as barcodes is it? Thank you Katerina

Easter surprise from Sarah Churchill #23 of 365

It seems that Sarah is off and running with the 365 group, but the real surprise is that this was made with only Easter egg wrappers. So what happen to the chocolat eggs? My guess is that Sarah gave the chocolat to the postal person as they forgot to cancel the stamps! Thank you Sarah, and good luck with your 365 project.…

The Void from Erni Bar

Thank you for this Erni, afraid me? You can't be afraid of something you can't understand. Very clever idea for all those stamp bits that are left over.

Three Space men from Cheryl Penn, but something went wrong on Planet Dean

Ok this was the pieces that confirmed what I had been wondering for a long time now. Cheryl is not a "Sunday painter". Not that I have anything against Sunday painters. All art is good. What I mean is Cheryl can see these images in her head and paint them.

Well Cheryl didn't really have this image in her head. It came as a A3 size painting, and when I scanned it twice on my A4 scanner, something went wrong.

But if you can imagine that the left bit turns around…

From Nancy Bell Scott, For Dean for now

Thank you very much Nanacy, and as you know, at my age I don't even buy green bananas anymore. So something for now is a good thing. I really like Nancy's work. This one is painted on a page from a math book and placed on hard cardboard. And this is the correct way up, but I like turning in around from time to time. Thank you Nancy…

OMO passport from Marie Wintzer

A real gem is one of these bookie things that a few of the Mail Artist make. This one is speical as it has many hidden messages about French life in general, but the main story is that there is a tale in France that one can find a French passport as a free gift in a OMO soap box. (OMO is the name of the soap, and has nothing to do with two men washing clothes together.)

It is a real delight, at least for me, and makes me laugh every time I pick it up, or use it on flights. Thank…

My First Year of MAil Art ... blame MIM

Yesterday, or the day before marked my first year of Mail Art. I am not sure how this can be, but in this first year I did 371 pieces. Does this mean I get a medal or something from the 365 group?

And to think this all started with MIM and her "M", so blame MIM!…
