This blog makes obvious how far behind we are here in OOB. I enjoyed this anarchic card, and thank you all!   …

Receiving this folio (and more) was like winning an art lottery I didn't know I'd entered, so unexpected, beautiful, and big in impact:

With a trashbook that takes the aesthetic trashbook to new heights: …

One of Nadine's super-creatures is chewing bubble gums and kicking asses. Love them! Thank you, Nadine (yes, my linocut).

Thank you, Angie, love the card!!!

I love Thorma Cauli's style, cool!

Guido's sense of color is wonderful, and now I know that includes a fantastic way with blacks, whites, and grays: 

Wow! I should probably share this with Roberto, but sorry, it isn't going anywhere. Also enclosed is a poem/vispo by Guido, "Rain and Tears," full of meaning, "around a drawing by Saha Khosravi from Iran": …

That is what Cheryl calls this splendid book, a book "sort of about current things, and things a little past": …

Carina had a holiday in the USA and she got this black and white postcard with a mining camp in Nevada on it. And then she took it home, all the way to Finland. She put the postcard under the sewing machine needle and had a cup of coffee while making this ace Mail Art. I have a deep respect for people to know how to operate a sewing machine.



Well... that is the…

Divine timing? I think, yes. Just when I was wondering what kind of exercise regime to begin to get demonic abs, Nadine sends me this ad for "Convict Conditioning"  the web site is www.dragondoor.com/B59    Truly an answer to many prayers. Thank you for being the messenger Nadine!!!  p.s. people always choose your rock

It looks like Vizma arrived in Riga, and being such a nice sister, purchased her brother some D&G after shave most likely in a duty free shop.  And being the nice MAil Artist she is, I got the box.

Just for information, I use ARMANI eau pour homme, and not after…

A wonderful piece where Amy broke down a  larger handpainted collage to made this one. The sewing puts it all totally together. And it arrived in this funky envelope made from an old calendar of guitars.  How many people have calendars of guitars?

Well just for you information, this one is a Stratocaster which is one of 100 that were handpainted by Pamelina…

Nice nice nice. Mail Art with things to look behind / things to open. Interactive Mail Art ;)) Lots of blue and... other colours. Thank you,…

This package from heaven taught me the hesitation of awe at opening I've heard people speak of... Thank you so much for all the delicious goodies Carina!…

Maybe Erni gave the German post office the slip, but I'm sure they will find him some day!  I have no idea what this could be, but I'm sure Erni can explain, and then Janine can give an even better explanation.  This should be good.  Watch this space.

The flip side has greetings from Hamburg.…

Corresponding with Erich means entering a world of make believe where lines are simple and borders are easily crossed. The Zine page call for Mail Art Makes the World a Town resulted in a full visual narrative titled The story of Sigi.

I'm not too sure how I'm going to deal with the Story of Sigi in the Zine - but as the starter page for Zine 3 - its GREAT!…

Carina Granlund sent a drawing machine, I would need one cause my time is so limited these months But it didn´t work! But I don´t complain about it, cause of beauty. 1000 kg thanks!

Happy doggie Mail Art on collage background. Thank you Angie & Snooky.

Many famous painters through history were so prolific in their practice that they used their canvases over and over so as not to waste their resources. Nadine, too, is always exercising her portraiture talent depicting the people she encounters, and she often paints on BOTH sides of her canvas-medium, doubling the usefulness of her materials.  It's like getting a bonus in the mail!  Take this paint on board piece she recently sent my way...…
