Margaret, you send him a rubber stamped image (I usually stamp one on a postcard and write in ball point pen with an arrow pointing at it "for braincell"). Once he has enough he sends out a braincell and every participant gets a copy. You can participate by sending stickers as well - but unlike with rubber stamped images there's a number required for stickers and I forget just what that number is.

I've stopped receiving email notifications when I get messages, comments, or replies even those boxes are checked in my Settings. How can I correct this?

Comment by Mim Golub Scalin on April 13, 2022 at 2:06pm

Good question, Susan. I sent mail recently

hoping it would get there, but I have doubts that it will. 
i hope I’m wrong.

Does anyone know if mail art--or mail of any kind--is reaching people in Ukraine?

Comment by Heleen de Vaan on February 28, 2022 at 10:53pm

So sad news...

Also I hadn't been in touch recently, but was lucky to receive mail art some years ago. I love his typical style, which you can see here, accompanied by a list he had added, of (a part of) his exhibi....
