Mailart 365 has moved
Thanks for visiting Mailart 365. This site is an archive of mailart produced by artists doing mailart 365 from December 2010 to August 2016. As of July 2016, we moved to a new and more modern site at www.mailart365.com. Come on over and check us out there
30 - Face of the Swamp Thing
Still getting plenty of mail that needs to be returned to it's original location. This one features Alan Moore and Bisette and Totleben's Swamp Thing
MailArt #365 - DONE IT!!!!!!!
From my house to yours! It's only taken me just over 4 1/2 years but I did complete the challenge. When I started - back in 2011 - it brought me back from a dark place & got me being creative again. Thank you Andy for starting this - I've met some really lovely people through Mailart365, Sue, Andy, Ellena, Scott, Rebecca, MailArt Martha & lots I'd love to meet one day. I've received a lot of lovely, inspirational Mail Art. You are all so creative & I thank you for your support. Guess what - I don't think I'll be doing this again - however - I will continue to post my creative efforts on my blog - http://auchenflowertowhereever.blogspot.com
Thank you, thank you, thank you & farewell from me!
29 - Flash mail
One great thing about being back in the UK (Elena and I spent all of last year in Vietnam and Thailand on holiday) is that I can just go to the library and get comics (or "graphic novels" as they are now fashionably called) which are just about the only literature I digest these days.
Comic characters lend themselves to the bright colours of Sharpies really well and I'm very pleased with how this turned out

Another return mail going back to the NHS informing that the resident in question no longer lives in our building. Lines in biro by me, colours in pencil by Elena, who is going through a colouring pencil phase at the moment
27 - Floral garden
Elena and I have been really quiet with post, art and blogging because....we've had a baby!
Now that our daughter is 6 months old we're finally finding a little time to get some art done and there are a pile of envelopes just begging to be returned (pimped) to sender. Here goes....
Lines in biro by Andy, with colours by Elena
MailArt # 364
Made as a prototype for an Art Piece that is going to Taiwan next year!
MailArt #363
Sequins - hopefully meets the theme of 'Alladin's Cave" - I thought of opulence - this was made for a PC Swap.
MailArt #362
More stitching, more fabric - guess this is my medium!
MailArt #361
Who's looking at who??? Strips of fabric make it very colourful.
