'Ceci n'est pas un aquarium', 'This is not an aquarium'




From Keith S. Chambers two nice envelope arrives. One almost two months ago, containing pretty stamps and Mail Pigeons in front:





The print inside shows a rather, er, dead person, however the dandelion represents new life:



The print came along with great artistamps:



And more artistamps:

.

And the other - orange - envelope, which arrived two days ago, contained great fish stamps:


'Hippurus hoc non est', 'this is not a goldfish'


And the Fish, shown on top (in not an aquarium), with an autumn poem on the back:




Banana swords:



And two peculiar official USPS stamps on the envelope:



Thank you very much, Keith!

Laura Griffin

This mail art I partly posted in the Banana mail art group months ago. However the beautiful Bird invited me to have him/her show up in this animals gallery, too!

Created ant sent by Laura Griffin from Canada.

On the envelope a nice Elk stamp (slightly missed by the cancellation stamper), two artistamps (might from Anna Banana?) and an awesome banana stamp print.



Thank you very much, Laura!

Chocolatine et Stooby

On the artistamp on the envelope Chocolatine & Stooby had sent me, there's a beautiful bird: the Seagull!

And inside a great water colour painting of someone who reminds me of the fairytale Snowwhite. One can discuss whether dwarves, like smurfs, belong to the animal world (and 'thus' to this site), but as I wanted to post him, too, I think the answer tmo is 'yes'.



The artistamp is part of a mail art call: Pirate boat. I had a boat to draw in mind, but thinking of the link to this 'Real weird animals' blog, suddenly there came a lot of animals in mind which I could add to my pirate boat drawing to send to Chocolatine et Stooby. Animals other than pirates, like rats, the rat-chasing cat, parrots, dodos and prehistoric animals.

And don't these Onions look like Dolphins jumping above a misty water?

Erni Bär

Received from Erni Bär from Germany, as a reply to my Bär (Bear) to him. Many animals on this beautiful piece of mail art. And who has ever seen a werewolf in real?

Herzlichen Dank, Erni!
