As you probably have noticed, especially when you have sent Animals Mail Art to me, I am much behind in posting the wonderful mail art I received so far.
To the pictures I am posting I want to add the right, matching words. However, being a kind of perfectionist, and having other parts of daily life taking a lot of my time, posting takes this much time, that in fact I even don't post anyway.
From visiting other mail artists' blogs I learned that words aren't necessary at all. And of course it should be like that: art speaks for itself, most of the time.
Therefore, from now on, I will try to keep up posting, under the motto "More images, less words" :-)
Call for Mail Art: Weird (existing) Animals! Platypus, Tapir, Okapi, Echidna, Mole, Axolotl are some of my favourite animals. They have in common that they exist irl and that they are uncommon. Which animal do you think odd? Send your image of an unusual (existing, no fantasy) animal. All media are welcomed, preferable postcard size (10x15 cms), maximum A4 (20x30 cms). No jury, no fee, no return. All weird existing animals will be published in this ongoing virtual exhibition.

John Edwards (5)

How pleased one can be when a Bird is named after her: the Devaana Heleena (Linnaeus), known in English as the Jolly Green Nutcracker. I was happy that John has made this detailed illustration of this colourful bird, because I was too late to catch my camera to take a photo of the bird when I spotted this bird on the 31st of July.

On the back side John drew this nice Bird of Pray. And inside this envelope a postcard with a kind message.
Thank you very much, John, I am happy to have received some birds from your personal Bird Encyclopedia!
