Valentine Mark Herman's Comments

Some guy in Anaheim says thank you for the latest mail art. My mailbox is always a happier, sunnier place when Val drops something into it. Quechua; sounds fluxus, but it turns out to be an entire language. Yarp.

Hi Valentine! what a surprise in my mail box yesterday! you know...the beginning of this fairy tale is yours, infact the first version was told by French peasants in the 10th century. so thank you very much for your 'new' red riding hood, a tradition that go over years...

Ciao Valentina, i'm very happy you liked my collage.   see you soon... ciaoooo

HeHeHe...I found a sealed stamped addressed piece of mail to you from long ago. Of course I had to open it - but I will re seal and send. You will perceive from that letter that I must have been imbibing liquor at the time ( and obviously had a gulp or two near the end of it!). Anyway its quite funny. It was written before the blow up that shall not be mentioned - and I have an idea that I didn't send it because I was getting annoyed about the bickering! Sleeping dogs... 

The not dissappearing,not transparent,not light sensitive,not invisible mail is not yet in existence - but it will come!

When do I collect the euro millions, Val?

hahaha, thank you for the fun card:

Vintage from Sigean...Val sends euro millions to Greece

Do Not Open! is fabulous! Thanks!! I love playing with concepts/words - and you did it brilliantly! I sent a vaguely similar contribution to Zalop's illusory art exhibition some time ago ( not the same, but playing with the same sort of idea) . I will recreate it (more or less) for you, Erni and Vizma - since I think you 3 are the biggest fans of conceptual mail art!

and thanks for the friend acceptance. Let my work day begin.

Hey Val Mark: ferrets are largely kept in Canada as pets, although some use them to keep livestock barns free from rats and mice. As pets, they are often abandoned or given up. Pets here are disposable accessories. Ferrets are considered exotic and not a lot of people understand their care, so we formed a rescue group to educate, foster and rehome ferrets, in their forever homes.

purpleferret: years ago I sold antiquities and art on ebay and I needed an ID: purple is my favourite colour and I rescued ferrets :) Glad you got it....

Hi Val,

Sent your package on Tuesday my friend. Also sent you an email. Check your inbox.

Enjoy the weekend!!!

Thanks for the "Big Foot" mail art!

Hope yours is doing ok? Heal well! "PERASTIKA"!

Thank for the heads up. It seemed like a fun project (I wanted to sculpt some fake bus tokens). I guess I should have checked it out a little closer before I joined.
