Okay, let me say at the outset that I've received a lot more stuff since April which is not included here because it's basically just trashy crap. It's a joke, people! Oh my, I could almost feel the hackles rising around the world like the ridge on a Rhodesian Ridgeback. No, the reason it's not here is that  time runs out. But I will blog them and soon. As the…

I will be sending this out to artists during the course of the year as an Add & Return project. Here's the first one back from artist Ariana Adan a/k/a Estonolodigo.

The focus being Frank Lloyd Wright's birthday on June 8!…

Well... It's been a pretty mental few days! I am well and truly pooped! Thank you so much for adding me as a friend and accepting my requests over the last week! I am so excited to be a part of this wonderful world of ART! 

**They are firing the cannons in the castle next door as I write this - pretty cool uh!**

Anyway.... Will be painting ALL day today - expect some Kelly art SOON! :)

I love this little boekie and its title!

Barkpo from Neil: 

There it is, great and raw bark, with someone's "stump treework" ad, put together by Neil along with a few other doodles on paper. The whole thing is on cardboard, and says clearly that this is Neil's design. And I love it. Also from Neil in recent months: …

Such beautiful waxy + burnt words + symbols in this little book. The entire work is pure poetry: …

... from months ago ... thank you, Carina: 

That one is a favorite from Carina. See the car! The bathing suits! The abbreviated handwritten notes on the image! I'm still trying to figure out how those notes came out right side up, when the rest of it seems to be a transfer--a phenomenon Carina and I have discussed in the past. She clearly knows how to do it, and I love…

by David Stafford: 

Slowly trying to catch up on blogging months' worth of most-worthy mail art, I briefly considered scanning "only" David's story and not the picture side of this card. Another glance at it, though, said: That hair is…

One envelope held three very different pieces from Frieder--never a dull moment: 

I think Frieder's days must be very interesting.…

This is a beautiful scroll- parchment- burnt- and/or rust-like asemic piece from Kerri. That's quite a combination of adjectives ... and every single one describes something special to me. I love this piece.

Svenja sent this action-packed card…

A card from Mim is always a treat, and…
