I find a lot of inspiration here in IUOMA also! The community is the greatest.

thank you De Villo for all of your comments. 

I will ,as always, continue to follow my heart in creating art and in all thinge. That's the only way to go. These past few months in IUOMA has sparked and thrown light on  new creative paths. So much to explore! I agree with you about minimalism. I love it.... when you get it right. I definately relate to Nancy Bell Scots works. Lastly... Your collaborations are wonderful. I still have not explored vintage paper and trash emphoria. All in good time☺

Nancy Bell Scott (Maine, USA) is a longtime group member whose work exemplifies the "asemic-vispo hybrid" work that has come out of our group. (But you don't have to follow any school or style!) Nancy is known and admired outside of mail art for what she has done for asemics. She is a great artist to explore.

Also so I can feel like I'm keeping from meandering I want to add that Minimalism is a big element in avant art & also mail art.

Asemic writing can be very minimal and also focused purely on the writing aspect.

Minimalism is harder than it looks. I am terrible at it.

But nothing says you have to fill every micro-dot of a page. Absence, emptiness, nothing - those are artist tools too. No?

Eduardo Cardoso's (Portugal) Minimalist group is FAB and Eduardo is a great visual poets as well.
