purpleferret

Welcome to the Union, Marian. Glad you joined us. I'm the mentor for January, on my last day, but I'll be around to help if your questions aren't answered in NEw to IUOMA or the group Ask Anything. My contact info is on my IUOMA page.

We are the owners of an art gallery in Marseille, France, and organizing a Mail Art exhibit ''not for sale'' from June 3 to 30, 2014. The theme is: "Mermaids in the port, queens of the sea..." We invite you to participate and send an artist's letter. Free technique. On a postcard or any other object of your choice. Illustration, address and stamp on the same page. Deadline for hanging: May 10, 2014.   Send a work in mail format as original as possible. Send to: JC SARPI -  LE LAB 3 rue Bussy l'indien 13006    Marseille France
.We will answer each mail by sending Mail Art. Looking forward to presenting your works.  Thank you for giving the information to all the persons who may participate to the project. Look at http://lelab13006.blogspot.fr

Bonsoir, Purpleferret*!

Thanks very much for your tulip and music card, and all the stamps thereon. As a tulip lovern wanna-be-musician and philatelist (part-time, and only when I can afford to buy stamps, I very much like all the different elements of it. Merci beaucoup!

I'll be mailing you something back soon;

Best wishes, Val

*'Purpleferret'? Why?? Do tell...

your wonderful cat art piece arrived safe and sound!  thanks so much (I have six cats...)

-Jim.

Thank you!

2 more questions, if I may:

 i) what did you rescue ferrets from?

ii) what did you do with them when you had rescued them?

In the NE of England, where I grew up, many people kept ferrets and hunted rabbits with them. Others kept pîgeons. Or greyhounds. Or whippets.

Because I had a deprived childhood (I was only permitted to sit in the Rolls Royce at weekends when the xhauffeur was off dutc), I was only allowed goldfish and a hamster..

Thank you. That sounds like very good and kind work you are doing: good luck!

Thanks for the great mail!

I want a rescue ferret! ♥ A friend adopted one and I named him Mister Fat Eggplant, he was obese! I have rescue Basset Hounds. :D 

Earthling, this is the last but certainly not the least welcome message to IUOMA you receive. I’m a celestial mail artist living in a heavenly corner of the faraway universe called Republik van Patland. When you joined IUOMA on january 27 I was unable to welcome you on board.  At the time I was in a Celestial Journey far beyond the Milky Way. Now, back to planet Earth, I´d love to be the other end if you wish to trade mail art with a celestial mail artist. If this is the case at the time your envelope should read as follows:

The Celestial Scribe

Terrene Embassy

Republik van Patland

Caixa Postal 24827

Curitiba-PR

80510-970

Brazil

I look forward to see a piece of yours in our terrene mailbox. I will do my homework after receiving your artwork. This is nothing less than a Celestial Promise. I’m Patricio, Celestial Scribe & Republik van Patland Official Envelope Provider.

The celestial mission became, of course, to prevent the world to keep chewing up your spirit.  That time is over. The South is ready when the North is....

I am mailing to you, there will be art in the envelope. ♥ I know you are going to like this one! :3

Hi Marian, i have sent you a mail art in January, i was wondering if it ever arrived. İt will be sad if it's lost ...

Hope too, Marian. This is what to expect. İ don't have even a good picture of it :) .

thank you!!!  both envelopes arrived yesterday and I absolutely LOVe what you did with the puzzle piece. I posted it in the trashpo group hopefully you saw it.  much appreciate the mail art!!

İt's Shahmaran, a  mithological creature from Anatolia, half woman half snake. ;)

The Halifax-Curitiba huge gap is being bridged handsomely.  Congrats.  The ball is on the celestial court now.  I´ll keep you posted!

Snail mail coming your way! :)

Don't worry lol I thought that was quick as only posted it yesterday, then realised mine to you is in a plain envelope and far from stunning. I'm afraid my artistic skills are seriously lacking lol x

I'm glad you like the envelope. Mail art is so much fun! :)

Hi!

May be you want to exchange with mail art with me?
