Earthquake, 23 August 2011

Here's our damage, broken glass in a small framed snapshot. It was on top of a bookshelf and fell off in just the right way to crack up.

Having been in one really bad earthquake in Los Angeles, I feel so grateful that this one, though it felt very strong, did little damage.

It was the most exciting day in a long time. Now we await Hurricane Irene.

pretty wild, wasn't it? I'm glad to hear you're well and it doesn't sound like your building has structural damage.

How did I get into this?

I was asked when I started doing Mailart. Good question. Like many artists, I was making and mailing art without even knowing it had a name ...
