So relieved to read that it made it to you alright, there was some doubt as to whether that package was too heavy to be mailed from home. I kept expecting to get it back. I hope you enjoy the tunes!

KC,

I've got a piece headed for you today. I was curious if you might want some more music to create by?

KC,

Thank you for the "We Are One" piece, it brightened my day immensely. On a side note, I recently picked up a metal cable & clip display system; so that I can admire the various cardboard items you've sent me. Since they're too thick to fit inside the doors of the DVD storage units, in which I've displayed much of the Art I've recieved since joining IUOMA.

I received your piece "Once" today and it totally made me tear up.  That is such a powerful story and to receive another chapter in the artistic tale is a true gift.  Thank you for sharing such a bittersweet moment with me.

Karen, I got your beautiful Gold Streaks on canevas. Wow, you never cease to amaze, it's really beautiful work! I've sent you something today, but it now looks like a very meager envelope when I see what you did :-( there will be more for you....

Hi I think you sent me mail art again, and got it 2 days ago. Thank you. If it is ok I will email you directly so I don't need to come around IUOMA site.

Just a thought, you just put your card and a small card. You could use a regular envelope for the cheaper postage fee? Thank you. Tomoe

KC,

My hand/arm is slowly improving, so keep an eye on your mailbox in the coming weeks. It may not be my best work, but I'm gonna give it a go. :)

Karen, wow, I just got you're wonderful work. (I had to fetch it at the customhouse, and had to open it there to proof that there was no invoice included. The clerk wanted me to tell her how much this piece is worth!! What could I tell her? We agreed on a value of 5 Euros in avoidance of a fee for me to pay. - It was fun explaining her what this mail art is all about, don't know if she will become a fan or still thinks that we both have to be crazy). Anyway your work is fantastic, I love this little format you sent!! Thanks a lot!
