Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
a friend of mine who exchanged art showed me some cool thigs; i found some kindly strangers' addresses and sent them queer little postcards i had made. some people liked them and sent me things back. also more addresses. so i made more peculiar postcards and sent them to creative strangers,. also envelopes full of wonderful paper things and the odd package containibg weird and beautiful shit. it was a lot of fun for a long time, then i stopped for a while. now i want to create cool things to mail to other people again and fill my mailbox with fine and curious things. so i am starting up again.

    Hey Barking Mad, I got your fun postcard today--nice work with selvage & tissue & paint! Great colors! Thanks! I'll try and get something out to you within the next week.

    Earthling, this may be the last but certainly it´s not the least welcome message to IUOMA you are going to receive. I’m a celestial mail artist living in a heavenly corner of the faraway universe called Republik van Patland. I´d love to be the other end if you wish to trade mail art with a celestial mail artist. If this is the case at the time your envelope should read as follows:

    The Celestial Scribe
    Terrene Embassy
    Republik van Patland
    Caixa Postal 24827
    Curitiba-PR
    80510-970
    Brazil

    I look forward to see a piece of yours in my terrene mailbox. I´ll do my homework after receiving your artwork. This is nothing less than a Celestial Promise. I’m Patricio, Celestial Scribe & Republik van Patland Official Envelope Provider.

    Hey Vel, I send you a fab piece in an envelope with the address you gave, but it came back "return to sender." Did you move?

  • Azzaro

    Vel - thanks for the PC - nice 'Mitre Peak' address side - it saved me a journey - If the mountain will not come to Azzaro, then Azzaro must go to the mountain' . Original abstract on tuther side, and I liked the jagged edge. The Eastern Tailed-Blue butterfly was alighting on the mountain, and over yonder someone was letting off - fireworks. Great stuff.

    Hi Vel Crowe--I got your wonderful MUNG #1 with teeth piece today -- wildly original, I think. I had to look up "mung" of course. At first I assumed it was a name for whatever gets stuck between your teeth. It should be!

  • Bonniediva

    Hey Vel,

    I got your fabulous piece with feathers! Sublime! xxoo Bonniediva in the middle of nowheres!
