Angie Cope's Mail Art

Wow, I LOVE what Angie did with the jam I sent her (top). The green she added to my blue is perfect, and I love the sort of mappy abstraction. In return she sends me a blue/green buddy jam to play with! And a ton of ephemera, really good stuff. Thanks,…

Mail Art from Kim in Korea

I haven't heard from Kim in a long time, so it's delightful to see her again in the mail. Really lovely cards plus this ornament of circles--beautifully precise. Thanks, Kim!

This old-fashioned leftist really enjoys a good erasure poem!

Sa Mu's Mail Art

Wow! This card (balsa wood?) came in this beautiful vellum envelope, completely undamaged. Love the rooster and the key, seems very symbolic (of what, I don't know....wake up and discover the key?) Thanks Sa Mu! I love your work!

Politico/Philosophical Commentary from Richard C.

No, it sure doesn't, Richard. It's much more stressful and actually pretty surreal. Thanks!

Mail Art from Cuan Miles

This card absolutely blew me away. I just sat and gazed at the distressed tan side with the little bird. The faded postmark, everything about it, is simply wonderful.…

A & P with Cz Lovecraft and David Schulze

This is such a nice picture I'm going to have to think long and hard about adding to it....by the way, can anyone fill me in on who the person in the picture is? My first guess was Thoreau....

DKult Bunny Feet!

This is a bit like the shroud of Turin, actual tracings of the DKult Bunny Feet, with the runic "Rumple Ray Johnson Patel" written on top. Could be a curse or a blessing. I'm hoping it's a blessing, after all, I have been nothing but kind to this bunny. And here's the flip side:…
