Blogging Backlog Logjam/Blogjam

Could not blog except for a few pieces for 3.5 months, received great varieties of wonderful mail art, and they need to be seen. These are my temporary guidelines for accomplishing this maybe impossible feat:

1. Sometimes more than one m.a. will appear in one image--and they may not even be relatives!

2. Sometimes several m.a. will be lined up for a party photo and shot. I mean photographed.

3. My words will be minimal. But please know that I enjoy every single one and…

Marked: Life at Penn Planet A Serial Saga from Dean Marks

If you know people in high places, they can get you your own planet. At least I think that’s how I got mine. Or it could have been involuntary expulsion from earth because of a game considered too dangerous for 3 year olds.

What I think is dangerous? WHAT higher postal powers are accountable to Dean which allowed this piece to make it through the post… Its quite unearthly. Most postcards I receive have bite marks – not dean marks. Did Erni, The Valentine, Marie or The Inseine Guy…

It's Finally Here--the Dharma DaDa Erni Bär [Vegetarian] Mail Art Cookbook Series

A couple of months ago, Dharma DaDa sent me an amazing package of foodstuffs with a special "task." The instructions were: "Prepare a meal using the [food enclosed] and do a little documentation for IUOMA to show those guys what real EAT ART is... Good Luck!"

Here's a clip from that original blog post:

An AMAZING PACKAGE that arrived from Dharma dada Erni Bär... Whoa. If mail art provides me with…

overdue posting - mailart received

Always such a confusing thing to be an American mother living in England. We never really celebrated mothers day when I was growing up so no big deal to me but for some reason a big deal to my kids and whether to fete me on the English day or the American day has always been problematic. This year I was showered with surprises but this piece of mailart from…
