Thank you, Yvonne Kettner

"Hallo, I'm still here," is the message from Germany. "Hello," back from me.

An origami swan, collaged postcards, tags and envelopes. What a lovely introduction, Yvonne, thank you.

The stunning postcard of Skogafoss Waterfall in Iceland is printed in the UK, so I've got at least a triple-whammy here: mail from Marlies in Nevada, the UK, and Iceland! That's how I see it. :) Thank you so…

People's Attitudes

Did a mail art piece last October (not from here). The person I mailed it to posted me a nasty letter saying my art was crap and a waste of time. Which has rather put me off participating again. I know I'm not a brilliant artist, but I do the best I can. I'm disabled and thus on limited income - this sometimes limits my access to materials.
