hiya :-) yes please, id love some acts from you ive not made much mail art to be sent out for a while, postage has become a bit pricy. but I still like to mail out personal exchanges and mail art
Hello Martha, and thank you for your kind comments about Andrew's "Deep Oakland" book. I told him about your note and he was touched by it.
It has been quite a year for him and he still has some special events lined up, including an interview on a local radio station at the end of October. So much excitement!
The first printing sold out within about six weeks, and a second printing is in the stores now. That exceeded his expectations. Isn't success sweet?!
We are lucky indeed!! And blessed with this online "Third Place" where we can meet and share with one another, Martha. One is hard=pressed to think of other places online that exist where the people are lovely and support one another! I never take it for granted...OR the hard work and hours that Ruud must certainly put behind its functioning.
I sometimes think we should have a sort of telethon once a year to encourage member-folks to contribute via the "donate" button! xo
Just to be clear, the 'Odd to a Krokis' was not my work; it was printed by a friend Bill Taylor years ago. The author was 'anonymous' but I have a suspicion it may have been Bill himself. Alas, it's too late to ask now.
a tip for your next adventure in mailart. in germany you pay 0.92 GBP for one international envelope (max 20gr). so i think it makes sense to collect your mail art and you take a cheap flight with at least 60 envelopes in a handbag and you make a daytrip to a german city and drop them of. if you find 3 other artists doing the same you could deliver 3 times a year and it would be much more fun... (there is no irony in this text!) all the best
It's a long story, I was involved from 1988 and I partecipated and I created several Mail-Art projects for many years. Now I create only digital and web artistic works. But I will publish in my blog here many old works that I sent and I received by snail mail in this years,
I got your mail art a while ago. Sorry for the delay to thank you for it. I know the postage is very expensive there - I would be happy to send you my mail art every once in a while, and I ask you nothing in return 🤗🍀
Hi, Martha--Oh no; I never received your mail : ( I'm puzzled, because I haven't moved. But I know it's one of the rhythms of mail-art to cede to unknown forces at times. And I'm grateful that you thought of sending something my way!
Hi again, Martha--I'm sorry for the postal frustration. It may still reach me! Last year an envelope took 3 months to get to Arkansas from Finland. I'll let you know if it arrives. In the meanwhile, I will put something in the mail to you in honor of your efforts : ) Usually I don't announce something like that in advance--preferring that an envelope be a surprise--but I thought I'd let you know in case we're met with bad postal luck with mail from me to you as well.

I have had many issues with posting on this platform. Some of them get fixed out of nowhere and others never do. It’s a great piece, regardless.

Nei sotterranei d'ombra
Nell'oscuro del tuo sguardo
Nelle frane complicate dell'anima
Negli scheletri delle lucertole nel sole
Ovunque il gemito dei venti del nord
Ovunque il mio stupore.

hi martha,
a tip for your next adventure in mailart. in germany you pay 0.92 GBP for one international envelope (max 20gr). so i think it makes sense to collect your mail art and you take a cheap flight with at least 60 envelopes in a handbag and you make a daytrip to a german city and drop them of. if you find 3 other artists doing the same you could deliver 3 times a year and it would be much more fun...
(there is no irony in this text!)
