Here is some of the artwork I got in the mail lately. I’ve been exchanging mail art with people all over the world for over 15 years now through the International Union of Mail Artists. Most things are postcard size, though some people, myself included, are determined to push the postal service to its limit.
I hope you enjoy this selection of mail art. If you’d like to receive some mail art from me, send me your snail mail address in a comment or via email.

I’ve done a bit of this over the past year. I also do a lot of post crossing mail. It’s fun to get “real mail”.
