Here's some of the recent mail art that I received. Lucky me, happy mail box, and we're keeping the postal systems going!
I finally got around to changing up my real wall in my studio. I put up some new received mail art. You can see the wide range of styles. I put up some of the cool envelopes, too. Andy, who started our 365 Mail Art group, started a Real Wall and it's such a good idea that several other people are doing it. Sometimes, he creates his real wall out of doors!
By curving the lower edge of the man, I was able to incorporate him into the landscape better, I think. He definitely appears to be popping over the edge to check on the hunt.
This gal's neck is so long! I think it's a real help for her when she goes to art exhibits as she can see over the heads of other viewers. The Matisse piece makes a nice background.
Here's another of the double page spreads that I'm doing in Robayre's booklet.

Today is day 336, yikes!
Back to Tiny Town. I have many more of these cards left, so Tiny Town will continue beyond the 365 project, for sure.
I'm still using the painted ladies and other painting bits. I think they fit nicely with the town, but I may have to go back to photos as I'm almost through with the old book I've been cutting up. This is a Klimpt girl. Her stare is un-nerving.
This Matisse bowl of fish seemed like a fun thing to place in the street. Can you image the shock of seeing it there? Tiny Town residents have a problem to deal with here.
The Arshile Gorky painting made me think about Northern Lights, aurora borealis, or something unusual in the sky. I think it works nicely.
This is from a painting by Cezanne. The look is stern but I think the person really was someone nice, just had to sit for the artist too long.
