The Studio is in several places at once, a few outside Boulder, even outside Colorado.
The Studio's main office is with me, but we must venture northward into the wilds of Longmont for our group mailbox. It's always been that way. We like to get together wherever possible, and sometimes this in boulder, other times in ongmont, once in a while in neither of those places.
It's a "floating island," so to speak.
Please do not share that address with anybody. i'm currently alone on this IUOMA venture, and have many other duties/projects/etc., to care for. I am already stretched a bit thinly to cover for others whose time got cut into by time and distance and personal matters.
You might say I steer the ship, but it is not mine alone to steer or preserve from rough water.
I should add here that we have active and inactive members, a few of whom are neither involved at this time nor available, but would like to remain connected. So it's like a little community. I like it that way. i hope we never grow out of our intimate beginnings, wherein we are not about growing in numbers, but prepared more to maintain our shape.
Longmont i like an overgrown small town, and Boulder is much more cosmopolitan. Boulder's also closer to the foothills, and much more scenic. I've always loved the beauty here. It really is breathtaking at times.
And Dushanbe Teahouse is a favorite haunt for my friends and I. BMoCA (contemporary Art Museum) is just next door, with Central Park right across the street. Divine.
But the best art venue (in our opinion) Boulder has is at the north end of the Main Library, just a short distance from the Teahouse. Their curator has done a fine job often enough to be proud. And the artists get all the proceeds. it's a beautiful thing. There is a long waiting list for that venue!
Wanted to let you know I received your sweet card and it was much appreciated. I wanted to send you something back to thank you, but have been deluged with card orders that will keep me busy for the next couple weeks. So, an e-mail "thank-you" for now,
Hello Susanne - Fluxus Affair initially was supposed to be the merging of Dada style Fluxist Art merging with a romantic theme. Fluxus and Dada aren't usually associated with romance at all - in fact they usually are somewhat stark in nature. So, I thought it would be fun to mix the two together to find out what would come out of it. Everybody seems to interpret this theme differently, which is okay with me. I just wanted to see the love with the weirdness! I might have explained this better after I have had my coffee this morning, but this shall have to do for now. Thinking about joining in on the Affair? - Please do! I'll send you something nice as well. Hope to see you in the mail!
What did you think of Acton? We are right next door (a little more in the country - Acton is where I go to shop for just about everything). And Boston? Hope you were here during the nice weather -
Though we've had company (emphasis on HAD, thankfully), that is all over, and now I can start to get caught up on all the things I haven't finished nor yet begun.
As memory serves me, I owe you some Mail-Art! Just too much to do lately. My schedule here has been awful.
Hurrah for art-making this coming weekend, when time and pleasure may mingle!
here is an invitation to pARTicipate in the SECREt eXCHANGE exhibitions...pass the invitation on to your friends, and let me know on my page if you will or won't be able to contribute; for details, go to IUoMA Events...or click on the link http://secretexchange.yolasite.com/
Hurrah for you! It did arrive! So glad we share an interest in another genre.
And artist books are my most favorite form of expression beyond the internet. Even more so than mail-art, although I think they work easily in tandem. ;)
The series your book is out of might get continued for a while. I'm aiming for a new look, though, maybe with a few new kinds of paper, etc. it's the semi transparent kinds I like to bind between the covers of my watercolor and acrylic washes. If there's room in your collection for one more, I'd like to try another color along with something fresh.
Please, if you are going to post any of my work here or elsewhere, please do NOT include my studio group's address. We cannot handle large volume in the way of mail-art due to another project, that blog we keep. So please honor this request.
Susanne, I LOVED the silver drawing on the card! Was that done with a marker pen? I want to try that! I have mail art ready to go in tomorrow's mail. I had to redo all mine! Once I saw how amazing everyone's was, I had to step it up a notch! Hope you're feeling better...
Hello Susanne. You poor thing. I hope for you to be well soon so you can go upstairs and relish in all the things you have to make mail art with. I think your kitchen table must be a very interesting place! what you sent me was awesome! Let me know when you get my mail. I hope it brightens your day. I am new at this so hopefully it is okay! Much love, Terry-Anne

Boston! Good gracious! That is quite a trip you're making.
Are you a rootless vagabond, a modern gypsy-like globetrotter, or just a world traveler who enjoys staying abroad as much as possible?
We'll be glad to have you back on our shores again!

Oh dear! Your being in Boston means that you won't be back in your own country for a while!
