I had to laugh when my renter sent me a text that said "are you Snout?" I said no but I had a friend named Snout and she immediately dinged back "You've got mail"  Kinda reminded me of AOL back in the day.  Always like the rearranged faces in art, hence my profile pic. Thanks Snout it's good to see you here again :)

From Ana, the blank-eyed girl with a circus ticket, cool vibe.  I am absolutely a fan of circus freaks and I am loving this card! I had the mail stopped at my old house and when my renter resumed the mail I got several unexpected surprises and this was one of them. Thanks Ana :) s Ana :)

The second mail-art I received yesterday was the delicious one of Katerina ;o) It was a padded envelope, which felt really funny.

Love it!  Unnumbered but pretty sure I saw what could be a companion piece on a recent blog from Carina, a series perhaps?  

Thanks Torma…

Well, I was told by a senior IUOMA member that self promotion is important in the art circus, so here I am reporting a bit more about my recent work.

Today I received mail from Erni Bär and it was quite a package. I did not get the time yet to study it all and blog about it, so I will do it in installments. Erni had lost a bet and honoured it by sending me this altered dollar bill by E. Here is a small assemblage to say thank you! :-)…

A very cool portrait from LazyBunny in China ... I dig the Bunny!

What can I say that I haven't already said about Eduardo's collages?! Every time he sends me one, large or small, I'm always amazed at the intuitive power they possess. By the way, keep an eye out for his collages in the upcoming Winter issue of my magazine, Un<>Cut. The print edition will be available Dec. 1st.…

Erni and I had a conversation a few weeks ago about 'where the light goes' when a candle is extinguished.  Here I see that the light is reflected forward although Erni may not agree. …

Hey there mail-art friends, et al.

I just heard that this summer I will be helping co-curate a mail-art show at Wake Forest University in the wonderful city (my city) of Winston-Salem in my wonderful state of North Carolina. Although I’m not asking for submissions, just yet, I am asking for any pointers or ideas etc. about how to make the show as good as I possibly can.

Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. Please be honest and direct.

Thank you all for pulling…
