    Hi Jon!

    Thanks so much for the mail art! Is it ok or not ok to continue the art communication by adding to your piece and then mail it back to you? If you wanted, you could continue the conversation by adding something else and resending it back to me, or not?

    (I did this on the previous piece of mail art that you had sent me.)

    I believe I was on a road trip to Atlanta. I was living in Maryland at the time.

    if it had kittens & jellybeans on it, then yes, it was mine....I was going with that whole "spring" theme!

    Glad you liked it. After the estate sales there is always "stuff" left that most people would throw away. I recycle it - in art and sharing with others. I always have TOO much stuff so I have started sending it out trying to guess what each person would like. I will keep my eye out for the mags and let you know if I get some. Later

    Hi Jon! You'll see with my Royal Wedding mailing that I've got a new strategy -- send me something if you want the special offer, and then I'll mail it to you.  I thought if I just said 'who wants one?', I'd get too many replies.

    One thing that does puzzle me are all my Friends -- about 100 I think. Many of them are really unknown to me -- I can't remember why I asked them to be my Friends, or why they sought me out as a Friend. Any thoughts on IUOMA Friendship?

    Hope you are well.

    Regards, your Friend Val

    Hi Jon, I would love to send some found objects your way. I hit a bit of a jack-pot today so I will send a few things out in the  morning.

    A penny for your thoughts, about pennies from heaven, and I got your Royal Wedding card and you'll get one back closer to the Wedding, and now i must go and spend a penny.* Regards, Val

    * 40 new pennies at Leeds Railway Station -- ridiculous!

    Bonsoir! Hartlepools is one nof the grimmest places in the grim North East of England; (West Hartlepools is even grimmer, I am told, but as it is a Un-patrolled no-go area -- well almost -- I haven't been there for ages.) Darlington FC and Hartlepool Utited fans hate each other --always have and always will.

    There's Peace and Love for you!

    Hope you are well. Regards, Val

  • Valentine Mark Herman

    Bonjour! Yes the Hartlepudlians did hang a monkey as they thought it was one of Napoleon's French troops. The residents of that delightful town are widely known in the North East as 'Monkey-****ers'. I told you it was grim up there!

    Regards, Val

    hey, Jon! Kate got your postcard the other day. She asked me to tell you that she loved the postcard and was very happy to receive it =) and my weather news for today are "it's snowing in Saint Petersburg today!"

    what does the saying on this card mean? "Just Summer Seaweed"

  • cheryl h.

    Hi Jon! Thanks a lot for the fantastic collage mailart. Very evocative.

    Mar 26, 2011

  • Lesley Magwood Fraser

    I like the relation of the images on your postcard - the fingers and collage coloured shapes tie it all together, almost like a shattered effect. Great! Will send something to you soon Jon.

    WOW going to China sounds great! When do you go? Got your latest and greatest card yesterday. Slowly making my way through replies. A bit busy right now so 2 a night is my best effort.

    Nothing horribly exciting - some great old photos - ah to scan for the rest of my life and I would never catch up! Will get something out to you this week. Thanks and love the Indian chief piece.

  • Kris Naylor

    Hi Jon,

    Nope, not me.

    I received something from you several days ago, but I haven't seen it yet because I'm on business travel. Can't wait 'til I get home!

    Jon, because of you I'm trying to do some torn paper collage. Thanks! Also, I saw your comment about your handwriting. You might try a slanted board when writing, one that slants upwards. I saw some laptop boards that are slanted that could work I think. Are you a leftie?(Not political, but fine if you are.)cheryl h.

    Hi Jon,

    You're welcome! Thank you too! What level and subject do you teach? I am a nursery school teacher in a progressive school in California and a one day a week ESL volunteer.

     

    You will see your influence in the next mailart that i send to you. cheryl h.

    Ah, and how is the community college system doing there? One in our area has done away with French classes because they say they can't afford it. I hope English lit is still safe. People are reading less and less for pleasure these days. Reading can help in more conscious living ,I think.

    I'll see what I can do
