Not one...but TWO mail artists reproduced some of my mailart into commemorative artistamps, for which I feel privileged and honored...

The first was received from Jack Latteman of Cascadia Artpost, in his latest series of "Ticket! Ticket! Boleto! Boleto!" artistamps. (Series 14, Summer 2024).  I circled the stamp (in fuscia-pink) on the sheet that Jack created using one of my mailart lettters to him...

Isn't that COOL???!!!

Shortly thereafterr, I received a delightful envelope from the fabulous MailArta of Victoria, British Columbia, who used a similar mailart piece from me to create a set of commemorative stamps that documented Edition #122 (July 2024) of her Portrait Palace exhibition at her art studio in Victoria.  Again—how tickled and honored am I to be included amongst such fabulous artists???!!! Here's MailArta's catalogue raissonné from the exhibit:

I guess you know you've finally "made it" in the [mail]art world when you've been immortalized on faux postage! I'd like to thank my parents, and all of my primary school art teachers for this wonderful honor..."

Also, thanks to Jack and to MailArta for including me in their retrospectives!
