30 years ago today we lost John Lennon. I was 25. No artist's death has meant more to me. It was just so tragic. He was happy, and he was making music.
The likeness is kinda lame, but there's feeling in it. This is the back of an envie going to the Western Cape of South Africa.
Since I'm new, I guess I'm 'sposed to introduce myself. I'm Fiona "Fi" Webster (Fi is pronounced "fee"), a 55-yr-old nonfiction writer, artist, & retired physician. I'm from Houston, Texas, but right now I live in Maryland--just outside the DC Beltway. I've been doin' mail art all my life, I guess, but only thinking of it as "mail art" =smile= since early 2009. My quiver of techniques doesn't have many arrows in it yet, but I hope to add more with time. This 365 thing will be a great excuse for experimenting!
Speakin' of experimenting, if anyone wants to try out their mail art on me, my address is on my page at IUOMA. =grin=

My John Lennon related effort is rather London-centric. What a sad loss his passing was, I can only imagine
