Profile Information:

Mail-Artist since:
A long time.
My Website (without http://):
http://none
Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
My profile photo is part of an artcard I did a few years ago called "Delicate Bridges." It is worked in watercolor on the back of a piece of yellow invoice paper. Since the invoice paper is very thin (what was I thinking?), the finished watercolor is mounted on a piece of heavy watercolor paper.

Sometimes my art is a little serious, sometimes dopey. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference. I love sending and receiving the kind of mail that creates happiness.

    Hi Linda! I received your beautiful envelope of "junk" yesterday. All of my roommates were in love with the hand-painted paper- I'm so excited to start working with it :)

    Ciao linda... se non ti piace l'immagine in movimento la puoi cancellare... non mi offendo ... un abbraccio affettuoso , bruno

    No, it is the 2013 commemorative issue from the USPS. Note that it is a $2 stamp, whereas the original inverted Jenny error was 24c.

    There's no way I would have parted with one :) 

  • EJ Vest

    Hi Linda, I received your second persian postcard. Posted pics in my gallery.  I just love it, thank you.  Will send you more mail in near future. :) :)

    Hi Linda, Your interactive masterwork arrived today!  I did follow your instructions and cut the green strings, then opened the little doorways to other worlds.  I just posted photos of it--look in Photos.  Kathryn Corbett

    It is a dog instead of Bear in the Big Blue House but your lovely card made me think of him. Thank you so much, it made me smile.

    !2.02.15  Dare Ms. Linda French, ... Amazing!!!!.... Did I miss the introduction to your new logo image? ...how long have you been utilizing it?...I am not as observant  as I like to pretend that I am. ... Is that your concept or did you adopt it? I think it is genius (Clearly, the eye of an artist). .. Yes, I refer to your (far too cutesy) little Teddy Bear/Cat's Paw image. Best to you. Richard Canard

  • Bruno Cassaglia - netpoetartist

    Bello!!!!! ma continui a nascondere il tuo viso... peccato! :(

  • Rebecca Guyver

    Hi Linda :)  Your profile pic is adorable!  I received your Cats: The Musical postcard and I'm thrilled with it. Thanks!  It's so fun and really makes me smile every time I look at it.  I will reply, but with a bit more of a delay than normal.  Life's kicking my butt right now.  Hope you're well!

    Linda, if you are really interested in reading Warbaby, you can buy a paperback version for about 12 bucks from Amazon, or you could get the $5 Kindle version or you can download a free copy in either .pdf or .epub format here: http://danmouer.fastmail.fm/warbaby/

  • Dan Mouer

    A nice bit of mail from Linda. See it here:

  • Mail Art Martha

    I came to thank you for yet another beautiful card*, Linda, and got bowled over by your amazing profile photo, which I assume is your cat's paw turned into a Teddy Bear. You are clever no doubt my friend!

    * the new card will go up in March, the door is full now, and I am working on some stuff to post.

  • Bruno Cassaglia - netpoetartist

    Hi Linkda, just to let you know that I got your mail art today.

    It was a nice collage. Thank you. 

    Sorry for the frog doll but I will eventually send you back a mail. 

    I will post your mail later on... (piling up many past mail...) : ) 

    Have a good weekend! 

  • EJ Vest

    Linda, I received your postcard. I can't stop ogling it! Thank you!

  • EJ Vest

    I'd just like to reiterate how much I love this piece of art.  Look at those colors! :) And the tactile experience is superb, too. Thank you again!  Will send you some mail as soon as I can. :) :)

    Hello Linda, the bulging envelop with 'junk' has arrived. You must be very courageous to part with some of the treasures. Great stuff. Thank you very much.

  • Pam Ash

  • Bruno Cassaglia - netpoetartist

    Ciao Linda grazie di tutto! un fraterno affettuoso abbraccio , bruno :)

  • Carmela Rizzuto

    Thanks for your comment, Linda. I've enjoyed looking at your inspiring artworks here at iouma. 

  • Carmela Rizzuto

    Yes, I did note your wide range of media, artistic style, themes, etc. I'm a fellow traveler along that path and enjoy using a variety of media, themes, etc. I think that I am addicted to the challenges involved. Many artists past and present have a unique style which is instantly recognizable, so sometimes I wonder if I am 'out of step'. But then I think of Picasso who roamed the world of creativity without fear. I look forward to viewing more of your playful works.

  • Bruno Cassaglia - netpoetartist
