It was quite a bout of mail art during last week.  I joined in Erin Fussell's year long project #howstheweatherherethere and it's juicy!  I've beeen using a little heart as the ongoing motif among  mixed media abstract collage elements.  My very deep stash has come in handy as I've expolore colors and images to express weather that is inside and outside.  

The Art Association of Sudbury, MA is calling for mail art that represents an influential book in our lives, and I've sent two verses from the Tao Te Ching, an ancient Chinese classic that I have read on and off since 1972.

One of the best parts about mail art is taking it to the mail box out on the road and putting the little red flag up before the mail carrier drives by. It means one more work of art is completed and making its way out int he world.
