Diane, you threw me for a loop with this one!  You have to tell me where the star info came from.  It's very mysterious!  Loved it!  Thanks so much and I'll respond soon!…

Hi Carina!  What a nice surprise in the mail!  However you did the image transfer, it looks fabulous!  Love the title too!  The envelope was pretty sweet too!  Thanks so much!  One is back in the mail to you!…

Ernie, thanks for the great piece of mail.  I almost missed the hidden cards! Very cool.…

Let’s lay this blogjam to rest with the lawyerly grouping of French, James & Granlund. Apparently Austin James has a secret life. But have no fear. His piece “Mood No. 6: My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult,” is definitely drawn from the gentler side of the Thrill Killers. Isadora Duncan is what comes to mind. Thank you, Austin.

Next Carina Granlund sent me…

Lilian sent a beautiful watercolor of a peacock!  Thank you Lilian for a lovely piece!…

Cheryl sent this innovative Leonardo bi-ped picture, I'm honored. Her text explains everything, you get the feeling that you know L. personally.  

(Working on one of her collaborative book projects, I received a…

From Kerri Pullo, "Mail art is happiness" she wrote on the backside. True! Thank you, Kerri!

Amy Irwen sent this great piece of art, it isn't really sunny, but can't stop looking at this threedimensional yellow spot. Wonderful, Amy, thank you!…

The Cheryl Penn Dilemma What are we to do with Cheryl Penn? Her art, always masterful, always protean (look it up, I did) always dreamlike in its complexity or complex in its dreamworld evocations. Shifting beneath your feet as you reach out to its varied meanings and tangled up in the dreamworlds of others, mingling at some height high above the earth. The Penn-o-sphere. The air up there is rarified (Esoterically distant from the lives and concerns of ordinary people) but not hard…

My mail art for Skull Appreciation Day...…

I can't even imagine where she found the text "Sticky Confessional" but this collage is fantastic. thank you Lindsay!

A light fell upon him as he contemplated the great Shroud of Elgin...

At first the light burned a little...

Then he was filled with the spirit of Trashpo, and De Villo Sloan felt compelled to share with the masses the miraculous…

Got a new Brain Cell From Ryosuke Cohen, yey! I think he did a GREAT job, I'm absolutely chuffed. The Minxus stamps look dashing, right in the middle of the sheet (and just on top of Cheryl's hat). And icing on the cake, the address list goes: cp-sa, mw-jp, rc-jp. Great!

And I really want to quote MINesota flUXus (NOT the real Minxus) friend…

Thanks to Nancy Bell Scott or whoever coined the term Blogjam. It’s the perfect word for my current affliction. Apologies to all whose mail art has been languishing near my scanner. Let me begin with Stephanie Blake’s Whirligig Mugshot which amazed both of us by arriving without a scratch. Not even a torn edge.

 I know many of you will be tempted to try…

Received this great piece in a 'royal mail' envelope from Sarah Churchill. She said she found all these bits on her way to work. I love the way she put this together and Welsh trash certainly looks more intruiging than American. the thread really makes it. thank you…
