"* oranje mail, although the spell check made it ‘prangende mail’"
"Thank you very much, Katerina, for your prangende mail!"
"By the way, I recently designed this stamp. I haven’t used it yet, but it might hand some clue to the recipient :-) "
"Hello Bill,
To my experience there are no rules nor any guidelines at all. Sometimes the one who started an A&P writes on the sheet ‘when full, return to .... (his or her address)’, and many times no such thing is written, so it…"
"Hi Jan,
ORANGE you Lucky....LOL
Something is heading your way. Left here today.

"Thank you very much, Pam, for your beautiful Owl!
I've posted it in the zentangle-doodle group,

Due to some family circumstances I am very much behind in replying (so please…"
"Beautiful Owl by Pam McVay. Thank you very much!!"
"You had a good reason to look happy! Love that photo :-)
I am amazed about the colours, it makes me think of the 60ies, early 70ies, but I think this membership card must be from the 80ies, is it?"
"What I wanted to say is that the orange artwork of Jan is amazing."
"oh disaster! I clicked the wrong thingie and got myself out of the group!"
"Thanks Jan for the lovely Orange "Garden" postcard and for posting a photo.
Norma"
"Here's one I sent to Norma, who suggestd I post it, as her computer isn't handling photos these days. I entitled this "Garden" though it's not quite messy enough to repreent mine this seasosn!"
"ORANGE quizzie sun from Theo Nelson:"
"I'm a bit behind in my mail art, nevertheless I would like to receive one (or 2), Penny, to add to and return to Carolyn"
Profile Information
- Mail-Artist since:
- 2009 (and not aware being mailarting since 1979)
- My Website (without http://):
- http://heleendevaan.blogspot.com
- Why I am involved in Mail-Art:
- Making illustrations is my life.
Furthermore: I like to see other people's creative outbursts, love to see creative additions to envelopes. I like stamps, like to communicate via art works, I'm fascinated by how snail mail works: put a stamp and address on an envelope and a whole system of people and transportation means is bringing that single envelope to wherever you want.
Count up all previous words and see: Mail Art is inevitable.
P.S. If you want to create and send me mail art about your favourite (weird or common) animal I will be most happy; I'll like to post it on my http://realweirdanimals.blogspot.com blog.

What or whom is she staring at?
Posted on January 3, 2018 at 1:21am 138 Comments 16 Favorites
I've sent her to various colleague mail artists.
And great 'this is what she sees' returned home.
Of course new visions still are welcome.
Thank you very much, all of you!

Stamps which are almost loose but still in their place... Mail from Paris...
That must be Dean's!
The stamps were added to an enormous box which had succeeded to enter my p.o.box. Too big for the scanner, so I show it thanks to 'real…

The Soccer Field AAP's
Posted on October 24, 2015 at 3:36pm 4 Comments 3 Favorites
For some unknown reason I got a note-pad full of soccer field sheets. First I wanted to draw my favourite soccer team in it, but that appeared too much work regarding the little time I have.
Fortunately some colleague mail artists are willing to help to complete the sheets.
I'll post the added-to-and-passed-on-and-returned-to-me sheets in this…

Dear Heleen
Thank. Returning the collage to Moscow would have had meaning if there was still free space on the paper sheet. I could complete the collage and send it to Brazil.
Or do you fill in the sheet yourself with signs?
