Thank you Nadine...  *o*…

An Awesome postcard from Charlotte today....Up in the Sky...is it a "catbird"!!!  ??? THANK YOU CHARLOTTE!

One of my favorite things about Dewi, another of my Mailart 365 pals, is that Dewi draws REAL people.  He also does it very well. It is so refreshing to receive one of his cards.  His people are so believeable that I can invision him sitting on a bench, or in a cafe; just observing real life and capturing it with such dignity.

Thank you, my Canadian…

This is one piece of thin-ish metal folded over. The edges were taped so none of them were sharp. I think it's great they let this go through as is. It is a first. I have never received a metal envelope before. Also received another envelope from Richard that I will post another time. On the return address he put U.S.A.D.D. That would explain a lot of things wouldn't…

Mad Madge asked me how to do the Jon Foster tape transfer technique and I told her.  She then created (that very evening) some tape transfers.  I'm not sure if this is one of the first, but I sure do like how she has added the twist of sewing.  MM did note that it was her favorite one and she sent it to me!  An extra bonus - she has dated it 11/11. …

Really do love the unpredictable stitching on this very small two-pager: 

(And yes, two thumbs up for Rachel Carson.) Another great Nadine drawing/watercolor, along with missing camouflage birds (seen below on envelope), book note on back, and both sides of the envelope, not to be missed. The back of the envelope has a little something drawn by Nadine that makes my skin…

I just received this fab postcard of Zombie Kitty Kawaii! enjoying herself at the home of Angie and Snooky. Thanks again, Angie for taking part in my first project ;-)

 I received this wonderful painting from "E", it's great! And I'm honored to get this "Certificat de proprietè mail artistique" - very official and special!!…

Received this great piece from Angie sans Snooky. I think the layering is so wonderful and the stitching ties it all together. My sewing machine constantly malfunctions when I'm sewing on paper but it still looks great. Thank you Angie--also received a photo card of ZKK at your house.She is now on her way to Superhero's house!…

I hope you mean the comforting lady with the newsprint Christmas tree, because as an existential question, WHERE ARE YOU can be scary, and endless. (The answer today is: I don't know.) I do love this postcard, Svenja, plus the little packet of…

Envious of the coinbook pages Alicia has sent others, I received a coinbook and couldn't be happier: 

This coinbook is painted thickly and beautifully with mostly copper-penny-color paint, has a few more "pages" to it (Alicia pasted the…

Great watercolor, David, and is she singing, laughing, or screaming? Whichever it is, two thumbs up. Maybe it's all three, so much the better.

The other side at first looked partly as though you were sending me a denim patch to wear with…

Mim Golub Scalin joined me and others  at "365" last December 1, 2010. And making mail art daily and sending 365, we completed "365" on november 30, 2011. Mim did a spectacular finish making several small landscape painting beaming with blue and greens and light!  It is her #365! Congrats, girl! xxx…

He went to China...He wrote things down...He sent a booklet of amazing tales to Greece.

And  note, dear sir Sloan, that he sealed it with BLUE tape ;-)

Good read, Jon, thank you so much for sharing you adventures and experiences.…

Brent Leopold in Pennsylvania, land of Cheryl Penn's ancesters, sent a packed full envelope of his amazing prints and images! Some are stickers, all about postcard size, and all can be distributed around my Greek city as FreeArt! …
