Kits and Pieces

Hi IUOMA Artists,

Tonight I had the idea of making up a few kits for making a piece of mail-art, using the kinds of material I already have lying around. This time I'll make 10 (or up to 25 if there is more interest), and anyone who is willing to use this grab bag method to create art can have one of the kits. Ooooo! That sounds like fun to me!

If you had a kit of junk from a stranger, would you willingly post the art you made from it? I think I would, but it would depend on the junk. And I (or you) could always offer the disclaimer that I only had junk to work with!

I'll keep the offer open until the end of January, or until I max out to 25 kits, whichever comes first. I can't wait to see what happens.

With kind regards --Linda

Lots of what the Artist in Seine calls "Mail Art Omens" :-)
