Comment by Rebecca Guyver on October 25, 2017 at 8:48pm: HI Mail Art Martha,

I finally blogged a bit of your and Cascadia's Send out the Clowns project! Brilliant work and thanks for such beautiful documentation! You can see the blog here:http://thepostalleger.blogspot.co.uk/2017/10/coulrophobia-and-casca...

Comment by Heleen de Vaan on June 2, 2017 at 1:37am: I posted my clown mail to you yesterday. Curious to know, and looking forward to knowing, in what place the mail(wo)man will deliver my mail art :-)

(oh how I hate clowns! Fortunately I found matching circus stamps which aren't as bad as clowns are..)

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on April 26, 2017 at 10:10am: Yes, Judy Collins did the song...back in the Hippies Era...

What did it mean? What does it mean?

...coming your way soon :-)

Comment by DKeys on April 22, 2017 at 2:37pm: I made a video of Clown Art I found for Angie a couple weeks ago and posted on FB. You turn the clown nose and it is a music box that plays, "Send in the Clowns," a very famous song by Judy Collins

Must have been Jack's idea-so synchronistic

Comment by Mail Art Martha on April 21, 2017 at 7:43pm: Thanks Katerina, I didn't know the song or is it your own poem?

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on April 20, 2017 at 3:27pm: "Isn't it rich?

Are we a pair?

Me here at last on the ground,

You in mid-air.

Send in the clowns..."

"Isn't it bliss?

Don't you approve?

One who keeps tearing around,

One who can't move.

Where are the clowns?

Send in the clowns...."

"And where are the clowns?

There ought to be clowns.

Well, maybe next year."...or next month :-)

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on January 29, 2017 at 9:41am: Super nice blog jam for the New Year!

Comment by Mail Art Martha on January 28, 2017 at 7:34pm: Thank you to all for remembering me and sending your mail art to cheer up this dismal January. Today we had a hailstorm, that was kind of nice and it did not last long. You shall be getting something from me soon if you haven't got it already.
