Thanks for the welcome Mim! Its too late for the warning though, I am already addicted. LOL Definitely will be sending you something. 8-) Time is my biggest hurdle. Thanks again and I am sure I will have questions as I go along but will check out the intro information first.
Hi Mim! Thank you so much for your welcoming message and for pointing me in the right direction. Sooo...besides looking around and familiarizing myself with the website, do I just start creating my mail art and choosing whom to send it to?? I have some awesome pieces already to go. Two people have requested to be friends, so should I just begin with them??? Oh, and I will get something out to you of course!! Also, do I need to be "friends" on here in order to exchange mail art OR do I just look and around and chose??
I'll keep an eye peeled out . . . Oh, I'll be hitting the road for a few weeks this coming Sunday, so I'll not be able to receive mail until next month . . . the post office has graciously offered to hold my mail for me until I'm ready to get it. Ain't that the bee's knees?
I would love to exchange some mail art with you. I feel like a kid in the candy store...lol Thanks for getting me started off... "Bliss Mail is coming your way...lol"
Thanks for the message Mim, I finally sorted out the privacy settings and added my address. I'm currently working on some material to send out. Is there a group for children to share mail art? If there's not I was thinking of starting one as my two son's like to draw with me, they are 3 & 5
So glad you liked it. I get these ideas and then they sort of grow as I do them (in this case adding a fortune to the cookie *grin). I seek wu wei in all that I do, but like you its not always easy to "not do" but I really do notice a difference in my painting if I allow it to happen. Thanks again for the swap, lets do it again sometime. 8-)
Glad you got the card and i git yours today! You did a remarkable job with the :landscape Beautification project on interstate 40! And Blond and fair skinned w/ your husband w/ the olive skin, perhaps a past life??? See you in the mail! Keep on repairing the world through art!!!
That's funny Mim. It was actually on the cover of a found religious pamphlet that had a picture of the grim reaper with that caption "HI There" seriously disturbing so I used it for a more cheerful purpose. Have a good weekend:)

Mim - Your beautiful landscape card arrived today; it is lovely! I really like the composition and the way you were able to use the delightful accident of running ink to strengthen the image. Looking forward to more art in the mail from the great artist members of the Union. David
