To generate experimentation with and inspiration from my favorite forms of art, including collage, comics, zines, handmade greeting cards, book art, and paper interactive art, and to know that my art is getting to people who (hopefully!) like it.
Hi Melanie! Thank you for the mail art! So fun to receive a bit of surrealism through the post. I’m still trying to learn how to post and notify on this site, you can see your works on the main page. I’ll send something out to you soon. Glad to see another PNW mail artist.
Thank you for the gorgeous mail art collages, Melanie! Just spectacular - plus a truly remarkable envelope, too! WOW! I'm honored to be connected to you. Something from me is on it's way! xo, Edamameg
My apologies, I was quite active on IUOMA for some time, but then I moved to Denmark, where it is quite expensive to send lots of international mail. But I do still make and send postcards, and I'd love to receive yours and send one in return. If you don't mind sending internationally I've updated my address.
Thank you very much for "In the Depths", "Dropping", and "Protection". They were received by me yesterday. I love the blending of body and texture in your pieces. Currently looking around the walls of my room, trying to find the perfect spot for them :) Some of my art is on its way to you now!
Hi Melanie! I received The Party and Home Brew on the 31st! Thank you so much, I've documented these with scans of them on my IUOMA blog. Will correspond this week~
Thanks so much Melanie for such a neat story book and pictures! They are all so lovely! I love the grey scale with the color pops! Thanks so much for trading. I hope mine hits your mail box soon!
Hi Melanie, thanks for you message. I can read them but I can't reply to them (ning problem). I'll respond in the mail because otherwise I think my continual public commenting will be taking up too much screen space for other people.
Hello New Friend, Melanie. I'm not very active sending out mail these days , but focusiing on my Boring Postcards and Manhole Cover Groups. But, if you send me one of your very special works, I promise to send you something back. Best wishes for 2023, Val
Greetings from Rilla 4! I’ll have a look to see if the souvenir shop is still there! Otherwise we have to time travel to a much less distant version! Greetz, Franshizzle
Thank you Melanie Redd, It's beautiful. You hit me in the "weak spot" black and white. I can't decide if you have a more accurate hand or eye. Of course the story, the idea is crucial. I'm not the most sure that I've seen something like this, and I'm not exactly an absolute ignoramus😀. Thank YOU for making us happy with your art and gifts.

Yes innovation, except if the theory of synchronicity does not demate.🤔😀
I am joking of course.
Well done. Both the idea and the realization
