sorry about that Jon--i tend to go to town when I am mailing an envelope and I'm sure if you check closely, the kitchen sink is in there too! 

I just looked in my mail art sent record book to remind myself which piece I sent you. I recorded the card as "security envelope cut out". I cut out portions of the first piece of paper and then backed it with another piece of paper, then I continued making cuts in the second piece and when finished with the design added another piece of paper of a different colour.

It was fun to make. Hope you liked it.

That was the right answer, Jon. Congratulations.

Hey Jon--glad you got it.You complete it and send it back. I have another that I'd like to send you if you want. I had originally sent it to Nadine and she sent it back. i think because it took her so long to do it, but it will complete one of the pieces. lmk:)

Jon, I love the collage you sent.  It is SUPER AWESOME!  You wrote that it was made with student work. Do you teach, or is it art you made when you were a student?

Thanks Jon. The pic is from the "old town" in my hometown. Nothing compared to North-Carolina ;)

Jon - thanks for sending the postcard collage with the tape transfer on it. I appreciate it because it gives me a good idea of how to go about using that process. Thanks again!

Hello Jon! Thanks for your great card! Have a nice day.

Hi Jon,

Thank you for your "Hey Mister" mail art card - it's great! I'll be working on something for you next week.

Have a good weekend.

Hi Jon--Thanks so much for your recent mail art. It has been added to my IUOMA photo stream and will be blogged soon at http://decordisart.blogspot.com/

FYI: I did read all 30,000+ words of your 'This is not a Fugazi t-shirt' 'zine. I'm tardy sending you my priceless thoughts--maybe next weekend.

Also I listened to the song, 'Be Productive'-Lots of humor in that one--a commentary on contemporary values. I find creative engagement keeps ennui at bay. 

Take care

Oh . . . I'm assuming that the count of three volumes means three directions to three victims, er, I mean collaborators [wait, isn't that a negative too?] Anyway, if you have your victims list lined up, I can send it onto the next artist after I lay down my brush . . . or is that not how it works, but maybe it is and I'm just a few steps behind . . . watch your shadow, those are just my oafish feet. Oh heck Jon, just send it along with a note attached so I know what to do next. Am I making this complicated?

;]

In.

Before I respond with a resounding, "sure," could you provide a little more 411 on the proposal . . . depictorial free-for-all, rambling semantic tome, pornographic translation of The Cat In The Hat? Sure, I'm up for any of that . . . or more . . . or less . . . I'm not looking for parameters [f-parameters, eh?], just your general desires of a starting point. Or not.

Glad you loved my nosy fan mail!! About the CD, nah, send me nothing... I thought I'd write you a list of some of my Oz faves on a CD type cover and send it to you, and if you like them, then you can put them on a disc, or wait until I find someone clever to do it, I'll obviously never work out how to do it on my computer, I just want to throw it out the window every time I attempt something new on it!! Dunno, maybe I'll just buy you a bloody recorded CD!?

Hey, John! Thanks for letting me know you got it! :)

Will look forward to a new piece from you... In the meantime, happy mail art to you! :)

Received your latest post — Life [with a back-story]. As always, your work is mesmerizing. Thank you.
