Because my friend Matt asked me this the other night, I had to think about it. His is painting a blue sky and some clouds, then he waits to see if anything more comes. His skull for Skull Appreciation Day was just the blue sky & clouds cause…Continue

Who will you send your first piece of mail to? I've been thinking about this a lot. Will it be someone in this group? Will it be one of the many mail artists I've exchanged MA with over the years? Will it be one of my letter writing friends, or my…Continue

Significant dates for the diary (some might say...) 41 Replies

McFloozy mentioned Quack Day in February and I had a message from Valentine Mark Hermann telling me of an anniversary in February. I figured that it would be best to put all the dates in one discussion, so anyone could contribute and we could all…Continue

Comment by andytgeezer on August 1, 2011 at 11:05pm: I made a piece of mailart today! I know i know, for a guy who runs Mailart365 you'd expect I'd be making a piece every day, but real life sucks doesn't it!

I sent a map postcard to a professor at Oxford university. I may well end up working with him on my next schoolswaps project! I'm working on getting the next big swap together, and I hope to work hand in hand with the UK Geographical Association on it. I'll keep you posted as ever! I'm going postcard crazy here!

Comment by prettylily on August 1, 2011 at 5:05pm: Ha, Ha, it's ok as long as we don't eat the stuff....right? OMG, I miss the old , dusty, art stores. At least I still have the hardware and thrift stores! I can't wait to go to San Diego, this fall, where there a great old, funky store and a Blick as well.

Lucky me! A card from Mim's abstract expressionist, series -"Paula in the Colonial garb" and a very cheerful "Christmas In July" card from Mary-Alice! Maab, your card is total fun! What a score! A double M or WAIT.... its's a tripple M score. Mim, Maab, Monday! A great day anyway! Thank you ladies.

Comment by Mim Golub Scalin on August 1, 2011 at 4:34pm: Excellent observation - I've been known to drool over pencils, ink, tubes of paint, and all sorts of other items in real art supply shops, like Sennelier.

Comment by andytgeezer on August 1, 2011 at 4:31pm: I'm sure this only happens in art circles. Drooling over a pencil! Love it!

Comment by Mim Golub Scalin on August 1, 2011 at 3:40pm: You can find the 9B pencils at Sennelier on Quai Voltaire. Go there prepared to be in awe!

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on August 1, 2011 at 2:12pm: oulala! Mim, your new series with minimal and graphite is amazing!!!

So, when I am in Paris in September, where can I pucrhase that 9B?

What a wonderful SOFT pencil...lush-to-the-touch!

Comment by Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat) on August 1, 2011 at 2:01pm: KALO MINA, Happy New Month: August!

HOT August Summer Sandpo...right, prettylily ;-)

'Glad Robert and the family enjoyed mail art!

Comment by prettylily on August 1, 2011 at 12:51pm: Paris & pencils..........Two magic words! :-)

Comment by Mim Golub Scalin on August 1, 2011 at 12:29pm: The brand is LYRA. We got it at Sennelier in Paris, and we were pretty surprised to find a 9B, having never seen one before. VERY soft and water soluble.
