no hanging chads from this score card. DVS' work is always inspiring as I would never have thought to something sans envelope that had a flap. Astonishingly, it arrived fully intact.  Great holiday card with DVS' signature muted colors/antique mystique thank you…

Got this great trashpo po from Vizma. She says it is genuine uncensored studio trash from her floor. It includes a DNA sample , which will be great for the DKult archives--we might be able to sell that strand of hair for millions one day. Your hair tested positive for artistic ability. Tucked inside a mini envelope was a tiny stamp that says D=Day

Love this Viz=and your…

Susanna sent me the most amazing bound book of laser copied collages and I was so thrilled to see some bits of found trash that I had sent her included. I would scan every page but there are so many I just love this!!! Next is something from Eduardo Cordosa

many items helpful for the running of DKult. DKult Portugal recruitment campaigns seem to…

This came unsealed and empty. The USPS used their own tape to tape it. We will never know what was inside but I would really love this stamp

hypnotic piece from Suus in Mokum--such a feast for the eyes

still life remnants from XX JOnes

brainy trashpo from Kat!!!…

Thank you also Dustin for the mustache and card I received from you!!

For eight years we have been receiving mail for the ever elusive, Barbria Carter. Val Marque gave me the idea to make a series of "Barbria Carter Does Not Live Here" Mail Art. David was the first to receive one and this is his response. He has put my mind at ease to finally get some insight into who this invisible squatter is. The dark underworld of mail art seems to hold many mysteries and it is no surprise that Barbria Carter has become a part of that. The biggest mystery of this piece…

This beauty arrived  from Aracara--only $750 can buy you this festive Rudolph the Roadkill Reindeer

gorgeous acrylic painting that should really be posted in MOBA, but since someone probably paid this price for it, it becomes legit art--I guess  thanks for thinking of me Cara!!…

The opening was a success. We had approximately 1,223 visitors, of which 5 signed the guest book. They had this to say about David's latest…

Nadine has sent me some…

I could never put together something as beautiful as this Halloween card--everything is so perfectly composed. And I also got this  Two Part Action Drama from David Stafford!!!…

received this add n pass from Alicia Starr, worked on it apparently covering over who the originator of it is. Does anyone know whom I am supposed to mail it back to?

Thom sent me this great all inclusive Holiday Card and poem. Thom is spreading the love through poetry and trashpo. DKult is so proud to have him as a member--he promises work DKoracle bags are in the works. These will be great for the Blind Auction to raise…

Stamped on the back of a section of Brain Cell--great idea as I am never quite sure what to do with them.the brain cell mutates

This didn't scan well, but really like this piece from Guido. Much different style for him. thank you!!!

I am so excited to have received the first entries into this month's contest. The winner will be chosen on the 15th of every month. Open to anyone but it would be nice if you joined the group-please send your bad art to BAD ART 407 S. Liberty St Elgin IL  60120 or you can email it to me at: blackcatcircus@gmail.com

This first entry is from our esteemed judge, Valentine Mark. He was very bold to attach his name to this, but the heart shaped mouth would have given it away anyway.…

I'm in love with the color palette Claudia uses. It's hard to read from the scan but it says" when they said I'd be in the hot seat in my new job, I certainly didn't envision this."  she also writes on the back, "Thanks to you I will NEVER forget to use the zip code again.."  Jon Foster had touched on the inevitable paranoia that can creep in when we exchange mail art and communication stops. This happened to me with Claudia as I hadn't heard from her in awhile. I thought maybe sending her…
