It's about communicating, connecting, sharing, and making. It's about not having to deal with galleries or juries or framing or sales. It's about having one's bliss and sharing it. To see my first MailArt365 project, check out my Fllickr set. http://flic.kr/s/aHsjsW3hKW

Hi MIM! Thanks for your comment--- I am glad you liked the letterpress card. I am learning to operate a letterpress & design on it too. I've enjoyed our correspondence too- and always feel happy when I receive you post cards. I am a little over extended on social media- so I do not check IUOMA as often as I should. I do see you on my FB feed pretty regularly though! that's fun too.

MIM! got your incredible postcard today,"relaxing with eggplants! I will treasure it as a MIMClassic!!! thanks so much it made my day, see you in the mail my friend!
Yes it is hard to remember if we do not see each other in person. I was away from mail art for a while till last year just send occasionally. I have had "friends" in IUOMA but forgot who I have been friends with. It is funny that if I would not connect on Facebook, I would not realize and did not send you mail so it was good to get in contact again! :)
Hi Mim...Richard left this message on my page, but it was addressed to you. In the vertical position the bike drawing that I sent to you does read as a 'face of sorts'.
From Richard Canard: "17.05.15 Dare MIM, ...Ms. Carmela Rizzuto turns the bicycle into some sort of graphic Picassoid personnage. I am in admiration of those who pedal bicycles as well as those who make art at the mention of a word. All best for your exhibit.…"
Thanks all. Back home finally after 12 days which felt like an eternity. Great mail art was waiting for me. It'll be awhile before I can scan it. Please keep them coming.
Home three days and itching to get into my studio. It'll be a bit before I can but me and my new hip are getting along just fine. Bicycle and other mail art has arrived today. Thanks so much. I'll have lots to scan and post, looking forward to the day I can do that. Excitement is mounting here in Richmond as the UCI world bike races get closer to happening. I'm excited that we'll have lots of mail art to display. Peace
I have an old lap top so the only way I can send photos is via the email attachment. I sent 7 photos last Tuesday (7 emails) as requested but have no idea if they were received and no images appear on "my page" yet. What is the normal time frame? I requested one photo be my home page photo and the others were samples of my mail art. Thanks for your help.
Thanks so much for the cute collaborative post card with your 2 year old grand daughter, Zinn. Let her know I love her white bunny sticker and all the colorful birds and letters. Glad to see that you are exposing her to mail art and all the fun so early in life.
This is a mentor question Mim -- I have a million of them, but I'll stick with just one for now. How do you store all the art you receive? I'm beginning to see it could be a problem. I can only display so many at a time. Do you put them in plastic sleeves in notebooks, boxes, file folders? Storage space of course is at a premium. Thanks for mentoring.
