Alicia...Starr...

Alicia's mail art at first glance can look appealingly whimsical and sometimes immediate, and yet the longer you look, the more you see, including the thoughts behind it and the questions it inspires. I love this piece very much (and your handwrought envelope with vintage stamps, Alicia). Thank you as ever.…

Thanks to Mim Golub Scalin and Alicia Starr

Alicia did some fantastic graphite (or graphite-like) scribbling on her piece featuring Betty Friedan and Vanessa Place. Some other queens are featured also in the torn handwritings. Alicia's turn of mind--I love it.

A card from Mim is always a treat, and…

A box full of darkness - from Alicia Starr

This is my first mail from Alicia, a wonderful surprise. The flower on the envelope seems to have lost a few of its fragile petals. I always like when things don't arrive exactly the way they left, bearing the marks of a long trip, or "travel wrinkles".…

Alicia Starr's imaginary friends! and real art

Alicia sent this piece that fascinates me: The ragged edges along with the hints of rulers, punch cards, hole punch -- favored office supplies of not long ago -- make an intriguing combination.
