    Create the postcard on an existing 4"x6" post card or a 5” X 9” post card or start from scratch on a blank 4" x 6" or 5” X 9” piece of card stock. The art does not have to be done on an "official" post card, just something of similar weight and size. Please include on the back of your postcard - Your name, full mailing address, title of artwork, medium and email address, (website if you have one) .The artwork on the postcard can be either horizontal or vertical. All artwork can be mailed as a postcard or sent inside an envelope.

You may create the art with any technique, and all media are acceptable, including collage, markers, crayons, pen and ink, colored pencils, rubber stamps, tempera, acrylic, watercolor and printmaking. The only consideration is that the artwork cannot have a raised surface. Please no nudity, racist, or pornographic art.

    Hello Kathy! I will be glad to partisipate in your project.
    Give a child my address.
  • Tomoe N

    Hi thanks for your email.
    I have been aware of your mail art call ads, but I have been quite busy for the last online college class, and I was not sure if I have the time for it. I am taking independent study class with a book art instructor, making a lots of paper stationaries, ephemera. Now it is a midterm, so I am thinking to do bigger projects, and I have already chose 3 other mail art call to send to.

    I don't mind if your kid sending postcard, but I am not certain if I can send it back right away though. Is there a time line for it?

    My address:
    Tomoe Nakamura
    2-22-2 Daiho Kanancho
    Minamikawachi-gun
    Osaka 585-0005 Japan

    Thank you.
  • Tomoe N

    Haha. Ok. I understand. I will not let your kid down. You can count me in. ^_^

    If it is ok, I will show this to my teacher and make it as a part of my school assignment, so I won't feel like wasting. The other mail art call I want to join will also be a part of my class projects, so you will.

    Tell me again what I need to do.

    By the way, I have gotten 2 mail art today. From France and USA. I have one from Korea already waiting for me to reply...
  • Tomoe N

    Ok,, so basically your kids will send postcards all over the world, and have artists draw a house on and send it back right?

    Can it be a photo instead of drawing? Would you like something traditional? More like a modern Japan?

    Thank you for understanding. I am an adult student, but it is my last college class, before graduating after 20 years or so, so I am a bit nervous and worry about future job. So people's encouragement counts.
  • Tomoe N

    Thank you Kathy. I got it! I am in 40ies, so just a bit?! older to be called as a girl, but thanks for your encouragement.
    I do like Belgium in turn. I love the Scandinavian and northern European design.

    What I have been doing is these;

    Good to be your friend, Kathy,
    I wait for a special something from the children
    and I will return it with my addition!

  • Matilda Sandahl

    Hi Kathy! I'd love to participate in your art project! :)
  • jon foster

    Oh wow, your dissection of the "out of context" stuff I sent out is insightful. More than anything, that section highlights my often frustrated views of being a teacher. Sure they're redeeming times, mostly redeeming times, but the ones that difficult are more than difficult. Can't wait for your mail.
  • marni zainodin

    hello kathy, thank you for telling me abt the projet and be a friend. YES!! i'm in.
  • Carolyn Bender

    Thank you so much for the card which I received in the mail this week Kathy! I was so excited to come home to my first mail art card :-)
  • Tomoe N

    Hi, this is Tomoe from Japan. I got a mail from Belgium, and I assume that you said me. Thank you. You want me to put something on the right side of the collage that I've got and sending it back to you, right?
  • Tomoe N

    okidoki. Thanks for the birthday message. I may want to put a Japanese temple image instead of a typical Japanese house, since I have been going around temples as hobby trips lately. Besides, my house is more like a westernized house than typical. Well, hope you guys like my inspiration.

    HI Kathy

    You recently sent Valentine Mark Herman an email about a school in London doing a mailart swap. I'm very keen to get in touch with schools in England doing mailart projects. Can you forward details of that project to me please

    Thanks
  • Tomoe N

    Here are photos of my kid's & mail project has been sending back to you. I hope I did the way you've asked. And I hope you and the kid sending to me like it.



    And here are little something to him or her that sent.



    Thank you for the opportunity.

    It took some time, Kathy, but your "Feliz 2011", beautiful card, arrived as I returned from a trip to Athens. It may have gotten detoured around, what with the strikes in Greece, but it was here this morning! Many thanks!
