What I dislike very much about receiving Mail Art

Here I am.

In my Permanent Installation, also known as (AKA) my Studio, AKA 'Val's room at the top of the house'.

Three-and-a-half floors up, where only the cats and I venture.

From deep down below at street level I hear a 'click' that tells me that the mail has arrived at about noon.

I rush down stairs.

The cats follow me -- because they think it's lunch time;

I open the Mail Box, and if I'm very, very lucky I get some IUOMA Mail Art. (If I'm only…

Trucked in by Karen Champlin, USA--Maladaptive vs. Well-Adjusted Clowns

Many people don't like clowns--maybe it's the extreme features painted on their faces, but I'm guessing it's probably because they can't predict what the clowns will do next--clown behavior is too loose, too sudden, and too impromptu, which is exactly why we need… Continue

Un saut dans le vide / prière haptique - from Bifidus Jones

This blog post has no immediate effect on your health.

OK, enough ranting :-))



This is the last card I got before the earthquake and didn't have time to blog. Bifidus's cards are always a perfect blend of humor and aesthetics, I haven't seen a work by him that wasn't special. This one is no exception…

Mail Call Day: Riches from Overseas & the USA!!!!!!

Wow. You guys all rock my socks off! Yesterday's Mail Call yielded some bountiful surprises from 3 fine people here at IUOMA (other mail arrived, as usual, of course, including one from one of our own--hermetically sealed, I might add, with an overabundance of packing tape--?????? What were they thinking??? Like breaking into our Federal Resreve. Sheesh! But that's another story.) 

Valentine Mark Herman's lovely rose-encrusted postcard is certainly the worse for wear, more's the pity,…
