A group devoted to the art of trees: free medium. Without trees the world would be dead and a place of disaster. With trees the world can tackle global warming. Hug a tree and you hug the earth, you hug yourself and your neighbors. Without trees, no love!
Without love, no trees.
A sequel to the mail art project SIGNS and STONES and TREES (of 1998).
Guido Vermeulen started this group. After his death the IUOMA members keep it alive with posting photos and drawings of TREES in memory of Guido.

While I don't typically add mere photos of trees to our group,
here's one that is worthy of viewing... Spruce, Aspen and
Pine below Mt. Sneffles yesterday, here in Colorado.

Bill Porter
A mile or so further down the mountain...
more aspen, pine, Spruce in the far background and oak brush to the
right in variations of red.
Enjoy!

Thx, Guido used to see asemic writing in trees and he inspired me to explore Eco-Asemics: mysterious symbols and texts that occur in nature.

Guido would have loved it!

Speaking of Guido, I have one of his envelopes from several years ago that I've split to serve as an A&P. Any Tree Group members here like to participate in a "trees" A&P?

Hi Heleen... Norma Soulet indicated that she'd be willing to work on it next. But you might check with her, just in case.
Great job on that artwork!

Thank you, Amy!
I had to think of Guido's - Friour approved - project 'The Book of Ann', to which you've added, too. Time flies, his Book of Ann project has been already eight years ago..
Still curious, I am, about her. Guido wrote on top of his project that she was real to him, and (at least to me) mythical to us. She still is.
I hope that both he, from the star or cloud high in the sky, and the real Ann, will enjoy all things we do here, and friourly approve.

How beautiful, Heleen, so lovely to sit under the tree and read.
Where is the "Book of Ann" now? Hope it comes to Greece one day, too.
