Ready to Trade Again!!

2011-08-19T20:55:00.003-04:00

I have been working on some 5"x7" postcards that will be sent out to various locations - some to mail artists I've traded with a few years ago, some to mail artists I have never traded with yet, and some to my "artworld" friends.

As of right now, I plan on doing mostly 5"x7" postcards, with an occasional strange object possibly. I will try to send a postcard to anyone that sends me mail art, but there is no guarantees.

LET'S TRADE!

Comeback?

2011-07-20T08:03:00.001-04:00

I think I may finally get back into mail art! After I set up a post office box, I will post the address and we can start corresponding again.

Still in Fort Myers

2009-12-05T19:50:00.002-05:00

I am still living in Fort Myers, Florida, and will probably be here for a while. I have not done any mail art in quite some time. I have been very busy with my full-time job, my paintings, and working part-time in an art gallery.

However, I recently introduced a friend to mail art and the art of ATC / ACEO. Therefore, I may try to find some time in my schedule to get back into mail art so I can trade with past mail artists and find some new mail artists to trade with. When I get another post office mailbox, I will post the address here so we can all start trading again.

Stay artistic!

Still Haven't Moved

2008-10-09T15:47:00.002-04:00

I am still living in Fort Myers, Florida, as I have not had any luck finding a better job. I am still looking!! I hope I move soon so I can open up another post office box and start receiving mail art again. Until then, take care!

Computer Crashed

2008-08-05T00:36:00.002-04:00

My computer crashed a few nights ago and I had to buy a new computer. The worst part about losing the computer was all of the photographs I had stored on there. Just two days before it crashed, I told myself that I need to save my images onto some CDs and DVDs. There is a chance I might be able to recover the information. The last time I backed up any files was in January of this year. So with trying to get caught back up with my new computer, I won't be spending much time with mail art.

I also just found out that my art website is down and I don't know why. I need to contact my host provider. However, it hasn't been updated for quite some time because of an earlier computer crash where I lost my software to update the website. I have been thinking about redoing my whole site anyway. I recently got some business cards and need to start promoting myself so I could possibly sell some paintings.

On the plus side, I also got a brand new vehicle. If I would have known this other stuff would have been happening, I probably wouldn't have gotten it.

I am still looking for a new job so I can move and get another address to receive mail art at. So until then, happy creating to all of the other mail artists!

Finally

2008-01-22T22:55:00.000-05:00

I finally mailed out some mail art earlier today. I was going to post them here, but I am currently unable to upload any pictures. I'll try again soon.

Pieces of Creations

2008-01-18T19:39:00.000-05:00

Here are some of the mail art pieces that I have created in the time since I last sent my last piece of mail art eons ago! I will write some addresses on them and send them out soon.

I'm Coming Back!

2008-01-17T18:45:00.001-05:00

I have made the decision to attempt to begin making mail art again. I have not moved to another state like I was planning on, but I have opened up another post office mailbox to receive mail art at. I probably won't make mail art as much as I have in the past, but I miss sending and receiving art, so I will make some time for it.

My address is listed at the top of my sidebar. This time I decided use my real name instead of having items sent to "Mail Art."

Now I need to go through my links in the sidebar and see how many are still active!

Keeping Occupied

2007-10-26T01:35:00.000-04:00

I have been involved with way too many other projects to do any mail art for quite some time. I miss it, but I have more important priorities to attend to.

I am hoping to get another job soon, which would mean I will be moving. Maybe that will help me to restart some projects and try to manage my time a little bit better so I can make more mail art. I have taken down my address from the sidebar until I move and open up another post office box.

Again, thanks to everyone that has sent me mail art!!!

Long Time

2007-08-17T11:44:00.000-04:00

It has been a long time since I have done anything with this blog. It has also been quite some time since I sent out any mail art. I miss it! I wish I had a lot more time on my hands. I still enjoy receiving mail art and I have been creating some occasionally - I just have to put addresses on them and send them out.

I have also changed the address where I receive mail art, which is posted on the side of the page.

Recently, I tried to visit the sites I have linked in the sidebar and found that some of them are no longer there. I will try to go through and remove those links within the next few days.

Happy creating to all of you!

Happy New Year

2007-01-02T20:34:00.000-05:00

Time has been flying by over the last several months, as well as other activities and hobbies keeping me busy. I have recently moved, but I still live in the same city and have the same address for mail art purposes. I have been receiving mail art periodically over the last few months, but not much. I need to take pictures of them and post them. I need to start sending mail art out again to my fellow mail artists.

I wish the best of luck to everyone in this new year!!

My apologies...

2006-07-03T13:33:00.000-04:00

I have been away from this mail art blog for quite a while. Over the last month, I have been preparing a few large pieces for an International Art Show that is coming up in a few months. Therefore, most of my time has been spent with that. During that time, I received several pieces of mail art that I need to take pictures of and post on this blog. I have created some mail art, but have not sent any of it out yet. So maybe soon.

I have also closed my ATC call. If you have sent me any ATCs for the call and haven't received any from me yet, I will still return some to you eventually. I just don't know when I'll get around to doing that.

If you have sent mail art to me recently, I will try to get something into your mailbox soon. Thanks!

I'm back...

2006-05-31T14:14:00.000-04:00

I got knocked offline last week, but I am now back online. I've got a lot of mail art to post. However, I need to get ready for work right now, so there should be something posted tomorrow. Thanks!
