=======================================
I have always decorated my mail. It never occurred to me that there were other people like me!
So, my name is Prairie Kittin. I am on Flickr, deviantART, Facebook (Full Moon Artworks) and a few other places. Apparently I have a web presence. LOL!
I've been doing art my whole life. I think I was born with a pencil in my hand! :-)
I'm a 63 year old Grandma. I'm a biker who rides her own bike. I'm eclectic in a lot of my beliefs, but it all boils down to the fact that I am a dirt-worshipping tree hugger.
I live with my boyfriend.. a rather large hairy biker named Steve.
I have 2 black cats and a Maine Coon, Mousie, Prince and Trouble.
I have 3 pit bulls named Sookie, Sadie and Alcide.
I have 2 tan birds, Luna and Belle. They are ring neck doves.
I also have a "fish problem" according to Steve. I don't think I have a problem. I only have a 50 gallon, a 60 gallon, and a 10 gallon tank in the living room and a 20 gallon in the dining room! I have an Oscar, a Golden Severum, a couple of Danios, and a bunch of goldfish. Not a problem.
What does all this have to do with art in general and mail art in particular? Nothing, really. I just wanted to introduce myself. So, if this wild-haired crazy cat lady riding a motorcycle doesn't scare you off, let's be friends! :-)

Welcome to IUOMA! There are almost 3000 people here on IUOMA who 'decorate' their mail...in all sorts of ways.
There''s a great bunch of folks here at IUOMA and I hope that you enjoy exchanging Mail Art with us. I'm your Mentor, and if I can help to ease you into IUOMA in any way, then please don't hesitate to ask and I'll try to explain what's going on and how IUOMA works.
If you haven't already done so, I suggest you take a look at the 'New to IOUMA' page (4th from the left at the top of the IUOMA home page) where you'll find a 10-point Introductory Guide that should give you an insight as to what is going on.
Would you like to exchange some Mail Art with me? If so, send me something to 1 Rue de la Vieille Fontaine, F-11130 Sigean, France, and I PROMISE to send you something back.
Thanks for the Mail Art zen tangle on the reverse of an endangered whatever that is - croc or alligator. yikes. Hello to your brother Floyd from Floyd Avenue.
Prairie, this is the last but certainly not the least welcome message to IUOMA you receive. I’m a celestial mail artist living in a heavenly corner of the faraway universe called Republik van Patland. When you joined IUOMA on June 16 I was unable to welcome you on board. At the time I was in a celestial journey far beyond the Milky Way. Now, back to planet Earth, I´d love to be the other end when you decide it’s the right time to start trading snail mail art. If this is the case at the time your envelope should read as follows:
The Celestial Scribe
Terrene Embassy
The Celestial Republik van Patland
Caixa Postal 24827
Curitiba-PR
80510-970
Brazil
II look forward to see a piece of yours in my terrene mailbox. I will do my homework after receiving yours. This is a celestial promise. I’m Patricio, Celestial Scribe & Republik van Patland official envelope provider.
The Gresham-Curitiba gap is being bridged handsomely. Thre first brick - the true spirit of mail art - is yours. It´s time for this scribe to do homework. I´ll keep you posted.
Thanks Prairie for your beautiful card, I love this huge eye in a face between vegetable and aquatic! I will post it today on IUOMA site. See you soon in the mail!
