"Your area now might not seem so different from New England in some ways." ...You'd guess right! Both my brother & I are VERY much outdoor enthusiasts--and the Pacific NW has astonishing opportunities for outdoor activities and vistas of amazing magnitude! I promise to tell you about some of them in future correspondence! Here for instance are some pictures from my last hike a couple weekends ago... this was on the Olympic Peninsula (near and dear to my heart):
oh goodness... I know that we had a pop-up camper that trailed behind the car and that we used to stay at some of the camping grounds mostly. It was the exotic thing to do for a young family I think. My mother so loved the beaches (and still does). We also haunted Short and Long Sands Beaches. And of course my great-grandmother and her sister lived in that yellow gingerbread house in Strawberry Banks, so we would stop to see her during trips. It seemed so far away from Vermont when I was a small little child--in some ways, everything is so compact in New England, I think we used to consider distances as much greater than they actually were. Surprisingly, both my brother (and his young family) and myself live on the west coast now, though our parents still live in Vermont. // You are very right about the wonderfulness of mail art correspondence. It's been a joy to "meet" people, and terrific for inspiring one's self--of allowing one's self--to MAKE art and be creative!
Why Nancy Bell Scott-- So nice of you to leave me a note on my blog! And you are not far away from Portmouth NH at all! Do you know my family used to take summer trips to Old Orchard Beach in the summer? Wow! I would be pleased to be able to send you some poste artistique in the near future. Please keep an eye out for it... All the very best to you, and I hope you will have fun releasing your own art into the postal miasma here. All the very best, Thom C
Hi Nancy...In regards to your question about my Black & White Project...You can send me anything. If the white is too faded because of age, I will scan it and run it through a program to make it a more pure black & white. I thank you for your inquiry. Sharon
Nancy, nothing is different this side. To go to the post office is the nice part of this to me: something is on its way. On the other hand, it´s death time. Ou babies purchase one-way tickets only. Life and death, a process that is not diferente in the mail art kingdom. I´ll keep you posted on your baby.
some people don't bother photographing, of those that do ususally do in their own way, i don't believe there is a proper "protocol." you can either just upload the photo, upload the photo and notify the person you received the art, write a blog, etc.
my own method is to photograph, post to the relevant blogger blog (i run several), then notify the person i've received their mail and give a link to the blog post, then put the physical mail into a stack that waits a response.
but that's just my own system; everyone seems to have their own!
This is a friendly welcome to the network, from a friendly mail artist living in a friendly country. A good starting around here seems to be snail mail art exchange. I would like to be the other side on this very beginning with you at IUOMA. Your envelope should read as follows:
Patricio Duprat
Av. Paraná, 1489 apto. 1004
Curitiba-PR
825210-000
Brazil
I look forward to see your piece arriving on the mail. I will send mine to you after receiving yours. It’s my promise. Patricio
