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.

Beautiful tree, Katerina!
And thank you for your kind words. It still is in my place, I'm preparing the envelop to forward it safely to Norma Soulet, maybe she can send it to you, before it will return to Bill @ the Olathe Post?

Almond trees in Greece, Feb 20, 2019 "False Spring"
Nikos Katzanzakis writes about the monk who says to the almond tree:
" You scatter-brain almond tree,
if you blossom now in mid-winter,
the snow will come and destroy you"...

Pam McVay's "Trees Across the Lake" arrived today. Nicely done, Pam, and thankfully, the USPS didn't clobber the image side too terribly bad.
Thank you, Pam!!!

It does look a bit grungy, doesn't it? Thanks for the photo! Problem is that I like how cheap postcard stamps are! Frugal me....

Beautiful photos, Katerina!
Here in the Amstelland both spring blossom and winter bold trees. Maybe hard to see because of the shadow and my tiny camera, but I guess inspiring for us, mail artists, though:

Great photo, Heleen. I'd say that that tree has lived a good long time and seen many a passerby. Thanks for sharing!
