Pacific Northwest Mail Artists

This group is for mail artists in the northwest corner of the U.S. and British Columbia. Exchange mail art with your region's artists and maybe meet in person. We are planning quarterly meetings in the Seattle area where we will make mail art together and share what we are working on, as well as some favorite pieces we have received. We'll also share tips and techniques. Put a face to the name on the envelope!See More

Profile Information

Mail-Artist since:: 2017

My Website (without http://):: http://www.pistilbooks.net

Why I am involved in Mail-Art:: I found out about IOUMA from a woman wearing postage stamp pajamas at Breitenbush Hot Springs. I have been exchanging mail art throughout my life with my sister, a retired USPS letter carrier.

I like to make art and send and receive mail. I like the idea that in mailing a piece of art you are giving it away.

I love paper, printmaking, collage, color, surrealism, juxtaposition, all things vintage.

I am a bookseller, and also recycle old books into journals.

My Mail-Adress (snail and/or E-mail): willieopal@protonmail.com

At 11:02am on January 1, 2021, Amanda Becerra said…: Hi Amy! I just joined your PNW group. I currently live in Kennewick WA and would love to trade mail art with you! Samples of work are in my photo albums. Let me know if you're interested and I will get something posted. Happy New Year!

At 8:37pm on July 30, 2020, Francis Lammé said…: Sometimes it works dadapoetically to make mistakes. Gokko print sounds almost like a rip off fashion label. Surviving cancellation intact. Pouched envelope. Lovely bloopers.

At 7:58pm on July 30, 2020, Ann Golden said…: Amy’s delicate envelope featured punched and possibly cut elements that survived cancellation intact.

At 7:56pm on July 30, 2020, Ann Golden said…: Cannot believe how many bloopers in recent comments and posts.

At 6:05am on July 30, 2020, Ann Golden said…: Thank you for the pouched and folded envelope.. Amazing it was not shredded enroute. iIt spired me to do some cutouts in a return envelope,but I did back them since the mono print paper element is a bit fragile.

At 7:56pm on June 3, 2020, Edamameg said…: Thank you SO much for the envelope of goodies, Amy! I love the gocco print!
