    Heh heh...

  • vizma bruns

    You didn't forget to put Smith, I found his web page straight away... oh, Dean was probably too busy looking at your mother to take notice of all the details you'd written!? 

    I'm going to try my hand at stamping colours today, but using the same stamp...I'll send you any good results. Thanks again for the info..and here's another lovely arse for ya.

  • vizma bruns

    Whaddya mean "some guy's??" It's mine, you ungrateful bastard!!

  • DKult Chaplain Dustin de Wind

    Hey Blessed,

    Just click on Blogs tab, then click on the plus sign and it'll get you to the new blog page.

  • Carina

    Hi Father, got your mail today! Superb package, my God, you've thought of everything! Many thanks, will blog later!

  • Oh Boy

    A wonderful piece now 20 years old. Thanks

    I have 1000s of mail art pieces from 1980 forward. When I saw your name recently... I knew exactly where your suitcase piece was. Not too many other items in my collection have that recognition.

  • vizma bruns

    That was a day after a wax!

    Anyway, back to rubber...that stamping info makes it a bit clearer, thanks..dunno what a stamp positioner is, something like a jig?  But I do have a light box, which may help. Masking bits off, ok, I can do that...I'll get back to you. Thanks again!

  • vizma bruns

    Yes! I saw that case, is that actually stitched leather? Looks fantastic. Amazing what one can make during potpo sessions, if capable of anything at all!  I don't use anything except pain killers! But I like doing meditative or repetitive crap where you get into the zone and end up makin something brilliant, like your suitcase. Nice work! 

  • DKult Chaplain Dustin de Wind

    Hey BF! Sorry, I've been busy! I'll do it soon.

  • Carina

  • Donald Kolberg

    Thank you BF, it was an amazing group of art

     

  • Oh Boy

    You sent me both a Bottle Gram and a TUBE-O-GRAM.

    Here is a picture.

    Here's a pic of the wondereful bunch of stuff I got today

  • vizma bruns

    Yeah, I saw the tube blog, and that bottle gram is very cool, can't wait to see the pics of the contents! But I reeeeally can't wait for your mail!!! Very, very very excited about that!!! Weeeeeee! What oh what will I send you back? I'm workin' on it!

    About the potpo in Cal, is it all over the state, or just Venice Bch? I heard that Venice has become a really dirty craphole since it was legalised there.

  • Cayte Catastrophe

    I drank all of the whiskey :( But I'm glad the little mail arrived in one piece! I was a bit worried about the envelope. Until next time!

  • Suus in Mokum

    Bless me Father, I received blessed mail with beautiful snailmail stamps. Will blog in the near futher. Thank you very much, Suus

  • Kendra Given Carter

    Hello Blessed Father! I'm actually quite terrible at cleaning, but I like to look good while doing it.

  • Kendra Given Carter

    Well, I have sure have fun making my mail. Would you like to do an exchange?

  • Kendra Given Carter

    SPLENDID!

  • Kendra Given Carter

    Great! Looking forward to seeing your work. I'm off center too, kind of all over the place.  

  • DKeys

    I've got my ink pad standing by in anticipation--although I have to admit I'm a terrible stamper

  • DKeys

    I have an acrylic block somewhere for mounting stamps if I can find it. Love your amateur gynie piece. I love your irreverance :)

  • Bruno Cassaglia

    Ti invito a parcipare al mio gruppo "performances" , un abbraccio , bruno

  • Bruno Cassaglia

    Si chiama "performances" cerca fra i gruppi se vuoi farne parte ...

  • Mim Golub Scalin

    Glad you got the card I sent. The rubber stamp "licensed mail artist" is a favorite of mine. It inspired Dean Marks to create his own "unlicensed mail artist" logo. We license ourselves to create and are blessed by doing so.

  • Mim Golub Scalin

    Very nice images, BF.

  • Kendra Given Carter

    Oooooh! I like it.

     La Sainte Lance est celle qui infligea la blessure au flanc du Christ sur la croix. Amfortas succomba au charme d’une femme très belle et, tandis qu'il était dans ses bras, Klingsor lui arracha la Sainte Lance et la lui plongea dans le côté. Ainsi fut perdue la Sainte Lance et Amfortas reçut-il une blessure qu'aucun remède ne peut guérir. »

    Apparaît Kundry, la folle qui se moqua du Christ sur la croix ; sa présence bien qu'un peu hostile est toujours de bon augure. Accompagnée par les cris des chevaliers, elle se précipite vers Gurnemanz et lui fait don d'une fiole contenant un baume pour le roi que l'on porte au bain afin de tenter d'apaiser ses souffrances.

  • vizma bruns

    AAAAAAAHHHH! What IS that?? A depressed Humpty Dumpty in an agave plant!! Ha ha ha!! Yikes! You'd better not be making that into artist stamps!!!  Eek! Too funny!

  • Kendra Given Carter

    Today I have been SAVED! Thank you. Amen. I'll have something in the post for you tomorrow.

  • Oh Boy

  • Kendra Given Carter

    So is this $20 tax deductible to The  Church of Right Now? I just want to keep my records in order :)

  • vizma bruns

    Are you serious? Nooooo, really? I'm gonna laugh myself off my wall and crack my noggin if you've really sent those! Oh man, I need to fill up my red wine cup!!

  • jon foster

    Yes, I am a Nick Cave fan. I got into him on a long roadtrip in the middle of the desert. It was the perfect music for such a ride. Never seen him, so I'm quite excited for the show. And yes, I did receive a card from you just yesterday, thanks so much. Something coming to you as soon as I make some new items.

  • Kendra Given Carter

    Very nice. So you already sent them, or I pick where they get sent?

  • DKeys

    Thanking you profusely for the fantastic stampaganza!!!!! These are just perfect and really are a highlight of my week. Seeing the padded envelope in the mailbox made me so happy. Now I can offically document and certify all my found objects thanks to your holiness. I vote you for Pope!

  • Kendra Given Carter

    Gotcha. Thank you so much! I haven't been to the post office yet, but I'm making the trip today. You should be getting something fun by Saturday. 

  • vizma bruns

    HeyHo BF!!  Golly gosh, thanks for the ARTIST stamps, wow, edition 2, I feel so spesh!! They arrived today with the Giro stamps too...who is Giro?( I know it means turn but is that some velo riding hero?)

    Oh man, I really have to thank you for the extra stamps...AND the super stampings on the card!!!! What the...??  Are they your stamps made in my honour?? I just ordered a shitload of half price stamps from Viva Las Vegas stamps with my last pennies, so I'll make a book of them for you soon- then I'll forge some stamps to send them.

    You said you'd make artist stamps for anyone who'd wear a real octopus on their head, right? I have a candidate for you...seeya next week!

  • Bruno Cassaglia

    Non so l'inglese , uso il traduttore... mi dispiace ...

  • Bruno Cassaglia

    Iuoma group "performances"  di Bruno Cassaglia

  • Kendra Given Carter

    They did not. Sadly my mailbox was empty. Fingers crossed for Monday...

  • vizma bruns

    Of course I trust you on that one.."The wait will be worth it". It always is from you!! And any mailing with rubber enclosed is the best kind! No, that sounds weird...rubber stamps enclosed.

    And you're asking me if I want anything else added??? Isn't that enough!? Thanks! Too generous already! Well, maybe a birthday blessing...I'll be 44 in 2 weeks, eeek!

    BF=altruist!

     

  • vizma bruns

    OK, OK, OK, OK! You don't have to rub it in FOUR times!! Anyway, let's just say I'm 43 and I still play with rubber stamps!!! At least I'm finally aware that Santa is just the fat drunk with halitosis from down the road ...you wouldn't get me on his lap for any amount of rubber.

  • Alicia Starr

    BF, you sent the Taco Dog but you might listen to Dean and get something back soon.

    Viz, have you ever seen a Dingo?

  • Valentine Mark Herman

    Who blessed you and why -- you sneezed, right?

  • Kendra Given Carter

    I see you received my mail. Hope you enjoyed it. Your postcards are still MIA. I'm sad every time I unlock my box and nothing is there. Hopefully they will turn up soon.

  • Kendra Given Carter

    No postcards today. Strangely I've only received one piece of mail so far this week, not even junk or bills. Usually I get more mail, may be a hold up on my end...or they found their way to hell, in which case, damn them.
