How does one get over that Wall that can be around ones creative mind?  I do not know if it is because I am in a knitting frenzy or that I have hit a level of my art that I am now ready to step up from.  What do you do when you become blocked?

A very nice surprise arrived in the mail today....thank you Leslie for the (2) ATC's!! *-*

"eye to eye" - love the color and the size of the eye is very intense...

"run" - the body looks to be a dog, but when you get to the head area I'm…

Two pieces on Friday from Guido...thank you!

A very cool photo of Tree Roots - Abstract Lyrical Photo by Guido....Tree roots are just fantastic (unless they are tearing up your driveway or sidewalk!),  the way they grow out of the soil looking for moisture...

Guido's Famous Envelope Mail Art "Life is a Neverending Puzzle"....so, so…

Jim, I am very drawn to your envelope full of Flux items...It's telling me to use what you gave me; ADD and Send Back!

Plus your envelope was very cool with all the Fluxfrest Dates...

Thank you, it was a nice surprise to see your mail art in my mailbox...…

I have several blue tape envelopes from Karen Champlin. I don't really know what Karen and De Villo's blue tape collaboration really is about, but I take it as a seal of quality :-)) Her ATCs are pocket-size masterpieces. Extremely well crafted. I love the neatly punched holes on those (and the A inside!). Every time I see them I think yes, she truly is the…

Today, I received a fantastic -- albeit mysterious -- submission for the 12-12-12- End of the World Project. On the frontside of the card, there's a great image as you can see... on the backside, a great flash story!  If the person who sent this feels comfortable enough to contact me, please do so.  I'd love to talk to you about this piece.  (Unfortunately,…

Received my first trash-book from DK (Dekoder-rings on back order, she lets me know on the envelope!!!) - it looks fabulous and smells really good, whole work space smells now like it. I love it, Diane, thank you very very much! 

Some of my favorite pages ...…

It's not often we receive full frontal nudity in our mailbox here on Alamo Drive. Especially when it concerns the mail of the species. But KDJ goes boldly where others fear to tread and besides she's merely recording an actual historical event: The Day Johnny Walker Left His Pants at Home. Much like Lady Godiva's famous ride without her extensive PR team, Johnny Walker's Walk, as it's known in the deep, deep impenetrably deep South, was one of those watershed events that turned the tide.…

Ultra-wonderful letter from Marie Wintzer. It's poetic and threedimensional with this red ribbon and a beautiful picture of a japanese woman is crossed by layers of text weaved into it. Fantastic, really!! I'm happy to have it and looked at it full of admiration. 

Thank you so much!

Here more picture to see its beauty: …

Nooo, too human are barcodes, funny card, variation on a barcode Op. 51, thank you, Dean, will send something soon. (and love your profile photo today!)

Just got a wonderful art out of the mailbox: Urban experiment from Cheryl Penn. It is a more than usual wide card to open up. There it a town (Zalop city??) and huge letters announcing the experiment. The texture is wonderful, thick paper, as if there might be something in between the inside and outside... The edge is whiped (??) with this iconic red filament CP and Marie use…

This handsome mail art card is fantastic, I love it, along with the delightful booklets: I've seen some of Samuel's ultra-tiny fluxus and asemic books elsewhere, and coveted them.

Also enclosed is a [ ... ] cool add+pass envelope (I.D. credit: Lesley Magwood Fraser).  thank you for everything, I'm so pleased to have MA from you ~…

I love this asemic cardboard booklet, an excellent piece. Thank you very much,…
