    Hi, Martha!  Welcome to IUOMA!  I'm the official mentor-of-the-month for March and available to answer any questions that might come up.  The "New to IUOMA" slogan at the top also takes you to quite a bit of information.

    See you in the mailbox!

    Cheers - Boo

    No, I grew up on one of the Lake Erie Islands, moved to South Carolina as an adult, and then moved to Louisville in 2004.  It's a wonderful city; I fell in love the first time I visited.

    Extremely cold. Extremely windy.  All that snow in Buffalo, New York?  It came from the islands.

    Strong, indeed.  My parents lived there until my father's death two years ago.  Mother, now 90, is in a care center in the town where my brothers live.  She can't see and has vascular dementia, but she still knows all of us and still loves a good story and is still interested in the various things I'm doing.  But, yes; they lived on the island for 65 years, and it was never easy.

    Greetings to everyone who has posted on my page!  Thank you for your comments.  I want to let you know that I was out of commission due to something we have all over the US, I understand.  Lyme's disease which is a deer tick born bacteria that is very powerful.  If not caught early, some infected folks find they can't work due to extreme fatigue, joint pain.  It can cause congestive heart failure.  I caught it early--in mid-June.  I am recuperating.  Still in process although yesterday and Thursday (at my class with Claudia McGill), I made huge progress on getting some mail art very much closer to completion and ready to go out.  Thanks for the mail art you have sent me and rest assured, some will be going out from this end soon!  Conserving energy to work is my priority and mail art comes right behind that!  Best to all, Martha

    Thanks Martha! But what about my ART? :-) I did not know there are people who teach collage making.

    Hi MWB, thank you! I like blogging about what I receive. Do you mean my own work? Its only humble beginnings, but I post them under photos on my profile page. But mainly after it has been received by the recipient. Having fun with childlike stuff. The Fukushima picture was done digitally - I did that as an "assignment" for Moan Lisa Art Academy. And as you spotted there is a bit of William Blake in it. Do you know Willhelm Busch?
