Mail Art, of course!

#42
This past week, I was using up more of the scraps from my table, but couldn't resist altering a commercial card.

#40 is an old card that  shows a motel that no longer exists. We stayed there probably 20 years ago when we first got our dog, Smitty, because they permitted dogs. it was just over the dune from the Atlantic Ocean on the OBX of North Carolina. We had a nice time except that we got kicked off after 2 days. A big storm was expected so they closed every place and made us all leave. Normally, it takes 3 hours to get home, that day, it took seven. The dog was freaked and never rode in the car again.

With #42, I started a new series, hands and butterflies/moths. There'll be more of these coming up.

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 ...
