Mike, thank you for the great letters you send with your art. I love that you recycled paper/washi from Debra! I love the stamps and is Ames really the Cyclone something or other? Does that say "Cyclone State"? Not much of a recommendation! Hugs!

Inside the handmade envelope (from a flyer from the Gurnee Antique Market) comes a new "Oregon" circle from Bonnie, plus some nice ephemera that will no doubt find its way back into mail art. Thanks dear friend!

Sure you've heard of Dali, Miro, Kahlo, and Magritte but how about Remedios Varo?

She created some of my favorite surrealist images. Slowly I am incorporating some of her pieces into my collages for you, my IUOMA friends. I bumped into her work long ago when I studied in Mexico. Hope you can check out her stuff and can tell me what you think. …

The mailbox was full this week!

Toni sent a special Add/Pass from the "E" Fan Club,
