And Lothar Trott.....the 3rd.



Here comes another round. I don't quite understand why he included a self made booklet of what appears to be a schizophrenic jumble of pornographic images and words, but I'm not complaining, maybe I'll try to unfold it and put it together later and see if it's really just one big work.


I also got another invitation to send something back to him. At least that's what I think it is.

The postcards were definately an unexpected bonus.

The Long awaited response from El Taller de Zenon




So at the very beginning of it all, one of the very first samples of my mail art was sent to El Taller de Zenon, in Seville, Spain. They claimed to have a gallery open showing the mail art, and as I had already been planning a trip to Spain, I thought it would be awesome to be able to see something I made in a gallery for the first time.


As it turned out, we didn't ever get to Seville, and I forgot about it until I got the response. The response seems to be alot like Lothar Trott's work, where his response, is a blank response, to be responded to. Follow all that? Good, because I'm perpetually lost.
I must say, the wait was worthwhile, as I'm quite impressed with the quality of the dog themed postcard. It's top notch!

Andrea Jay delivers again


This is in response to a letter to her, where I rambled on about how hot it is here, how I was going to Six Flags for my birthday, and how I live in the bible belt, and will probably burn in hell.


It's actually a fairly accurate portrait of my time at Six Flags on Memorial Day weekend, only I remember more mullets.

Nancy Belle and her dubious tea



Along with these copies of her beautiful paintings, Nancy included some holistic tea. While it claims numerous health benefits, I won't be partaking, as it's made of plants I'm not familiar with, and besides, who would drink tea from an anonymous internet mailing?


Thanks for the pictures though Nancy.
