    Thank you for your comment on my Squid Envelope. :)
  • E Coles

    Hi Shellie,

    I sent you mail art on Tuesday. On Wednesday morning it arrived back through my letter box! I thought it was addressed pretty clearly, but the delivery office obviously didn't think so. I popped it back into a post box and it hasn't returned again, so I assume it is now on its way to you.

    Have a good weekend,

    Emily.

  • Sheri Rice

    Hooray! Glad it arrived!  Merci for letting me know.

  • Nina Hermus

  • Mail Art Martha

    I have seen the mangled envelope you got from France, may be that is why here we have to pay double for a letter over half a cm thick, it is considered a packet.

    You can really draw, your line is fantastic and I love your ATCs.

  • Regan Shrumm

    Thank you for your encouraging comment! I really like the woodcut style of your work, especially your mermaid envelope and your adaptation of  The Scream.

  • Mail Art Martha

    Shellie I am not sure of the 2W in your address. Is that correct? I am preparing an envelope for you, please let me know soon.

    Recently I sent a card to an address which looked odd to me and I got a nixie back, my first.

  • Mail Art Martha

    I sent you something Shellie, let me know when it arrives, I am a bit worried about the address now.

  • Greg Carter

    Its been a while but I wanted to thank you for the large package of mail you sent a while back. Thanks

  • Mail Art Martha

    Shellie, your amazing packet arrived today. I love those sharks and the bookies are  delightful,so funny. Thank you so much. I shall not get the 3D printer just yet, may be for Christmas...

  • Mail Art Martha

    Good idea, the postcards as backing. You know, I keep reading your bookies and finding something new everytime. They are superb.

  • Olympia Zisi

    Thank you very much for your comment :)

  • Mail Art Martha

    Shellie, hold your horses! wait to see what I have sent you it's in the way over.

  • Mail Art Martha

    Well hold your hounds then! I live 20 min by train from London and 10 min by car from the countryside, where there are horses plenty. I love drawing them, like all animals. Where I live is suburbia and there are nice parks full of people with their dogs. I go there to draw them too, when the weather is good.  

  • Amy Irwen

  • Ruud Janssen

    Hi Shellie,

    No, didn't communicate that much with patricio, but he always welcomed new people and that stopped. So I understand your worries. Did you write to him to ask what happened? Sometimes big changes come unexpected, so I understand your worries.

    OMG - YES!  I'd love the rabbit and would joyfully display it on my wall if you sent it to me.  What kind of subject matter appeals to you?  I'll draw / paint something specifically for you first and include as many of my zines as I can get in the envelope while staying under 1 ounce, then you'll have my return address on the envelope.    

  • Minneapolis Gnome

    P.S. Thanks for the link to the blog - I'll give the baby oil blending a try!

  • Solimini Renata

    Hello Shellie, your pet love mail art arrived safely. Thank you so much. As soon as I can I will send you mine. Ciao!

  • Nina Hermus

    Hi Shellie, I got your mail! See my blog in this site. :-)

  • Sheri Rice

    Hi Shellie.  Once again I am blown away by your unique talent.  Loved the book and the title!  I was very touched by the woman & rabbit -- a good way of expressing your feelings.  I just returned to my house today after renting it out for a week to 3 Brazilians going to Burning Man.  They left some interesting trinkets behind.  So good to be home, and I will be getting right on the mail art bandwagon.  Thanks so much for the treasures.  Good luck in school.  ox

    Well, I don't envy your snow, Shellie.  But we have about a week's worth of rain starting tomorrow.  Hope it's slow & gentle.  SoCal seems to be getting the flooding so far.  Hope no one floods this time.  I will look forward to an arrival soon.  Good to hear from you.  Hope your holidays were grand, and the next semester better than the first.  ox
