Merci beaucoup, Gilberte, for this lovely original flower painting--something I have no skill at. I like how the brushstrokes are natural, not forced--and no signs of thorns…

There are so many marvelous aspects to this mail art--the blue images on the front, the stamps, the cancellation marks, and most of all,  the message on the back, dated 10-6-66. Thanks,…

Of course I love the anatomy additions to this Van Dyck painting. (I think I know that guy on the right.) I like this mail art for its surreal elegance. Danke, Svenja!

Dean's mail art is ALWAYS double concentrated. Far-out, fun, and jazzy without all the mess. Of course I love the bison and if there is such a thing as Randals Bison the French Buffalos Ranch, I love that too, and it's all accompanied by a map so I have no…

I have questions though. Many. For example, where do I read this amended fortune out? In the…

Thanks for the warm greetings and great mail art, Stephen! I love the…

because Marie Wintzer would want me to have them, he says, she of the disenchanted with anti-art now longing for a movement to anything she wants it to be:…

Dig those stamps! Thanks, Connie…

I love the print work and the colors--thanks, Coralette!

Another wonderful piece by the illustrious Ms. Penn--I dig the transparent layers which reveal and hide at the same time, the symbols of dice and taking chances, the inner workings of the mind, the enigmatic Mona Lisa smile, the incomprehensible and troubled…

It's always lovely to get an…

Arigato, Debbie-san!

Which somehow turned purplish when I scanned it in. That's global warming for ya. Thanks, Katerina. I love it.
