Oh oh oh! I am behind in getting all of my lovely incoming mail-art posted for others to see.  I feel pretty bugged about that until I can take care of it.  One of my kids gets corralled into doing the scanning ("Didn't I already scan this one?! Twice?!") and it all goes through in one fell swoop.

     On one of the YouTube videos about mail-art, someone said something about mail-art requiring an element of faith; just making something I love and tossing it out into the unknown. It may reach its destination, it may not but it was the expressing, the creating and the attempt to share that was my job.

     Thank you, friends, for all the wondrous mail-art you have, with an element of faith, sent to me, shared with me. It makes me smile every day. Sooner or later I will put it up in the gallery for all to admire, but, until you see it there, think of me and mine admiring it here in my house, in Two Harbors, Minnesota, USA.  --Linda

Once you get them going they move right along. It's the 'getting them going' that's tricky.

"Mail art requiring an element of faith?"

Re-name your children Hope and Charity, and then they will be much more willing scanners.
