I like communication, art, paper, painting and concepts. The ideal combination for doing Mail-Art. Worked with rubberstamps as a child and started sending out letters as soon as I could write. Discovered that it was called mail-art in 1980. Have been discovering ever since and in the last years also promoting this free cultural exchange.

How do I find and friend Billie Macunias? I see her as a member - and have met her and and and ---but I am not yet sure how to find my way around the site. Thanks!
Hi Ruud, I've been having a lot of problems with signing in, and receiving email alerts from IUOMA. I've changed my email on my page and have done it in the profile settings, then I get an email to verify, but when I click on the verification link, it comes back to IUOMA and the settings haven't changed and I have to start again...and so it goes again and again. Hope you have a solution, it's so hard to keep track of comments on this site with no alerts.
I have all of the stuff you sent me. I am working on a You Tube video featuring all the work you sent me 30 years or so ago. When people still used typewriters and black and white Xerox. Hold on to your hat. I still have all my rubber stamps too. I feel like I found my way back home. Back to my roots.
I still the original TAM form you sent and still haven't gotten around to fill it with my carved creations. My intentions was to carve new stamps. The commercial stamps are so expensive especially with Tim Holtz Stampers' anonymous.
I have small collection so I make impressions of whatever is there.
Thanks for the faux stamps I need something related to artistamps to add to my mailart.
Many thanks for the mailing! I will send you some rubberstamp examples post haste! Some GREAT stamps on that envelope! It will be perfect to hang at the next 'memories are made of this' exhibition!
Ciao Ruud , ho ricevuto la tua lettera!!! io uso poco i " rubber stamp " ma ho fatto qualcosa apposta per te ! un affettuoso fraterno abbraccio , Bruno
Thank you ! c'est à peu près tout ce que je sais dire en Anglais mais je vais me servir d'un traducteur !!! With the translator it is not necessarily completed but that will go!! Happy to cross the community of the maillarlistes of the whole world
I am quite new here, but have just thrown myself into the deep end: sending out mail like crazy. I am having a lot of fun! I have been waiting for just the right piece of mail art to send to you, but I realise I could wait forever, so I am just popping something into the mail right now! The perfect one will be sent later! Congratulations and for establishing and sustaining such an amazing group!
Hi Ruud, I received your TAM stamping sheets and your generously stamped envelope! I sent you some things in return. I hope you've received them already. If not, wait until you do before seeing your envelope and the contents here: http://thepostalleger.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/ruud-janssen-is-collec...
