Hi again, Martha--I'm sorry for the postal frustration. It may still reach me! Last year an envelope took 3 months to get to Arkansas from Finland. I'll let you know if it arrives. In the meanwhile, I will put something in the mail to you in honor of your efforts : ) Usually I don't announce something like that in advance--preferring that an envelope be a surprise--but I thought I'd let you know in case we're met with bad postal luck with mail from me to you as well.
Hi, Martha--Oh no; I never received your mail : ( I'm puzzled, because I haven't moved. But I know it's one of the rhythms of mail-art to cede to unknown forces at times. And I'm grateful that you thought of sending something my way!
I got your mail art a while ago. Sorry for the delay to thank you for it. I know the postage is very expensive there - I would be happy to send you my mail art every once in a while, and I ask you nothing in return 🤗🍀
It's a long story, I was involved from 1988 and I partecipated and I created several Mail-Art projects for many years. Now I create only digital and web artistic works. But I will publish in my blog here many old works that I sent and I received by snail mail in this years,
a tip for your next adventure in mailart. in germany you pay 0.92 GBP for one international envelope (max 20gr). so i think it makes sense to collect your mail art and you take a cheap flight with at least 60 envelopes in a handbag and you make a daytrip to a german city and drop them of. if you find 3 other artists doing the same you could deliver 3 times a year and it would be much more fun... (there is no irony in this text!) all the best
Just to be clear, the 'Odd to a Krokis' was not my work; it was printed by a friend Bill Taylor years ago. The author was 'anonymous' but I have a suspicion it may have been Bill himself. Alas, it's too late to ask now.
