Also best wishes for this New Year I received from Antonia Mayol Castelló from Spain.

The animal - besides Humans - which gives me an alibi to post her great mixed media mail art is this Rooster:



I used to create origami chicken like this (and when I folded the legs inwards, it became a Duck).

This Rooster isn't alone, together with Bella Lola he shows up in this composition:





See more art by Antonia on her blog.



Muchas gracias, Antonia!

Last month there was a mail art exhibition in Alicante, Spain, named 'Caminos de Agua', 'Paths of Water'. The exhibition and mail art project have been organized by Antonia Mayol Castelló (and I am happy that my contributions - among them this one - were shown there, too).

Even though Antonia must have had a lot of work to prepare for the exhibition, she took some time to create this great Fish mail art, which I received in November last year.
Muchas gracias, Antonia!

Received from Antonia Mayol Castelló, this beautiful collage. It shows the picture of the announcement of the mail art exhibition 'Caminos de Agua' - 'Paths of Water', and some of the contributions. You can see how many animals (including humans) are dependent of water!

And you can find the catalog of the exhibition in a pdf here.



This picture proofs that fish are better off in water than above fire.



Great bird rubber stamps.
Thank you very much, muchas gracias, Antonia!

Yes! Here he/she is, with many thanks to Antonia Mayol from Spain: the Axolotl!
A really weird, weird real animal, kind of salamander so no 'walking fish' but an amphibian. Axolotls live in Mexico and are endangered. Fortunately Antonia Mayol created this one, and I will conserve it with might and main!



On the envelope some beautiful birds, on artistamps and rubber stamp prints (some of them re-stamped by the Dutch mail company)!
Thank you very much, Antonia!
