Lezbag sent me this one in July, 2004. Lovely photographs!



Here's the insert with a souvenir block tabbed in.



Maggie Mize's edition for the Beloved Toys swap on the HOME list.



Lovely pencil drawings!



And one of my favorite artistamp issues, Omm Post's Breast Cancer issues.



From 2003.

Oops!

So this is Bill's cover, not the other one.

Artistamps, New and Old

This is one of Bill Porter's envelopes covered with his Nudes In Postal Art stamps.



Here's the reverse.



From the Arky of Toast, I received this June 12, 2004 from the Choreographer's swap.



The stamps he included.



And a close-up of one.



This was from Bev Trump-Dittberner comemorating her apprenticeship on a Heidelberg Windmill press. A most lovely stamp!



A sample of the print. Letterpress is really exceptional in it's texture.



Another older piece from 2003 from Marvin Johnson, aka Bufoman.



He lined the vellum envelope with this printed vellum insert.



and mounted his souvenir sheet on cardstock.

Day of the Dead

Day of the Dead is one of my favorite artistamp swaps and I missed it this year. I just did. Here is Ailurophilia's issue.



The reverse.



Here is bufoman's.



He always make such a great presentation card.

Recent Receipts

This is from a Spanish Mail Artist, J.M. Calleja. My thanks!



J.M. sent these two postcards.



This is the book from Kerrin Conrad's Whodunnit Mystery Swap on Carving Consortium. It is a well-done book with many great carvings and illustrations! That's a hypodermic pen on the cover, a nice little bonus!



This is from Eric Langolff of France. Eric received one of my mini Add-n-Pass books and sent me his and some art. Thanks, Eric!



Here is the cover of the book he sent.

and the back of it.

The interior is an A4 sheet folded and pasted into the covers. A nice variation of the one I sent.



He also included a postcard of his art. Nice painting!



I received these from Eric on September 9, 2004.
And his note to me.



On July 7, 2004, Susanna Ortlepp sent me this great stamped piece commemorating the Year of the Rubber Ducky.



Here's the back with a clever folded place for a souvenir stamp.



This is one of my new stickers to put on mail art.



And a jazzed-up version.

The Back

And the back. Thank you, Missy! It still looks nice even after a year!

Back, Again

Hello Mail Artists! I'm back, again! More trouble on the electronic front; this time I lost my internet connection. My computer lost the ability to resolve domain names, BIG problem! Well, it got solved. I ended up formating my hard drive and re-installing Windows. That did the trick and here I am again with lots of mail art that I scanned in the mean time. Anyway, Here's one from Missy Welshko-Williams from last year's AML-Too Tree Friends swap...

Artistamps

Here are some of the Artistamps I have made. This one was for a HOME list call. These are my dolls, Ballerina Barbie is from 1976 and Dawn is from 1970. I still have their original outfits!



I drew this and did some PhotoShop mojo to it for a call that didn't happen.



Child's Play 2



And Child's Play 3 (watch for more in the series).



I did this for the Artistamp Mailing List's fourth anniversary mailing.
