Mail Me Art


Max and I both participated in the "Mail Me Art" project out of the U.K., "Going Postal with the World's Best Illustrators". Here are our works, received on the other end! Nice of the post office to put the postage sticker over Bigfoot's head! (I can't win!).

Update: here's a link to the gallery show of Mail Me Art work.

Max rescued this treasure from the family home. This was one of his mom's "Sweet Sixteen" party favours. So we figure it's from 1958.

Kelly Froh Suggests...Cramhole!





By Billups Allen and Amy Shapiro. Available from Microcosm Publishing (which is where I bought them from.) I loved "Cramhole" 1-3! There's something about being any kind of music fan and growing older and seeing younger people around you not being as "true" a fan as you are/were. That's just one phenomenon covered in Cramhole, but there's lots more.
