I received this great wrapped piece with golden finger from Justin a few days ago and I'm getting around to posting it now.

It came wrapped in netting and brown paper. There is so much going on here: the wrapped object, the eyes and…

some real life distractions and minor setbacks have kept me from mail art longer than anticipated. In the meantime I have received lots of wonderful mail. Thank you all so much! However, now I am suffering from severe blog behindedness!

But on the flip…

     The mailman carried this one up to the top floor to give it to me personally.  "Here you go Monsieur Marks.  Do you think there's art in there?"  "I don't know Bill, I'll have to open it", I said. 

      I don't think the mailman's real name is Bill, I just call him that.  I think he likes it as it gives him an International appearance.  Much better than those double barreled French names like Jean-Claude, Mark-Francois and…
