Please include on the back of your postcard - Your name, full mailing address, title of artwork, medium and email address, (website if you have one) .The artwork on the postcard can be either horizontal or vertical. All artwork can be mailed as a postcard or sent inside an envelope.
Materials will vary, depending on the technique you choose.

Hi Katerina, I already received my copy of the book and think Lulu is definately legit. Try this link above. Let me know if it still doesn't work and thank you for your kind comments:)
Dear Katerina I really try to smile and laugh but very often I get the Blues. That belongs definitive to my life.
Did you ever feel the pain
That he felt upon the cross
Did you ever feel the knife
Tearing flesh thats oh so soft
Did you ever touch the night
Did you ever count the cost
Do you hide away the fear
Put down paradise as lost
Yeah youre blinded by rainbows
Watching the wind blow
Blinded by rainbows
Do you dream at night
Do you sleep at night
I doubt it
Did you ever feel the blast
As the semtex bomb goes off
Do you ever hear the screams
As the limbs are all torn off
Did you ever kiss the child
Who just saw his father shot
Do you ever shed a tear
As the war drags on and on
Do you ever touch the night
Or is it just another job
Do you feel the final hours
Put down paradise as lost
Yeah youre blinded by rainbows
And faces in windows
Blinded by rainbows
Do you dream at night
Do you sleep at night
I doubt it
Do you ever fear the night
Could it be the war is lost
Do you fear the final hour
Do you kneel before the cross
Youre blinded by rainbows
And watching the wind blow
Blinded by rainbows
Do you dream at night
Do you scream at night
Do you smell of fear
Is your conscience clear
Are you caked in sweat
Are your clothes all wet
Do you see the light
Is the end in sight
See the face of christ
Enter paradise
I doubt it
I dig that photo you sent-- I walk past there every night at midnight.
Yes, bien sur, those are bullshit buildings. I even gave a poetry reading in the Greco-roman one on the right with fellow poet and friend Nanos Valaoritis. They have a collection of my books etc. too. So it's really BS.
I would point out that I did not create the "Bullshit Acropolis" mail art. St Lucy did. It will be joined by others filling out the concept.
peace and love,
RAY man
Dear Katerina!
Today I think you are Katerina, The Great. Majestic, too. I hope we smile together right now! After that I have many ordinary things to do, like cooking, eating, cleaning and later sleeping. C.u. tomorrow - Wolfgang.
Hi Katrina!
Thank you very much for the swan illustrations and information. I like it how the two formed a heart with their necks. Yeah, you have the chance to look at stars very often I think. In Germany there are more dark clouds at night.
I found my new swan picture in the book about the film. In Germany it’s called “Nomaden der Lüfte”. No I know what “majestic” mean. Ciao.
And I know just one thing
Love comes on a wing
and tonight I will be by your side
But tomorrow I will fly away
Love rises with the day
and tonight I may be by your side
But tomorrow I will fly
Tomorrow I will fly,
Tomorrow I will fly
Hi Katerina!
Thanks for your last comment. If you like swans and if you want to know the whole text of the song so you must have a look on YouTube: To Be By Your Side, Nick Cave. I’m a fan from this video. Have a good time - Wolfgang.
Hola
yo ya suponía que algo en el viaje había pasado por lo cual la semana pasada ya envié otro trabajo por correo postal, pues no todos los trabajos los escaneo.

There's a blue light in my best friend's room
There's a blue light in his eyes
There's a blue light, yeah
I want to see it, shine
There's a ship that sails by my window
There's a ship that sails on by
There's a world under it
I think I see it, sailing away
I think it's sailing
Miles crashing me by
Crashing me by
Crashing me by
There's a world outside my doorstep
Flames over everyone's heart
Don't you see them shining
I want to hear them, beating for me
I think I hear them
Waves crashing me by
Crashing me by
Crashing me by
Hope my mail wasn’t to early or to long - Wolfgang.
