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.

Nancy Spanauf
This beautiful bird is very dear to me, and it has been created by someone who is very dear to me, too. Nancy is a talented woman, and I am very happy and feel honoured that she created this very first Bird to send to me.
To my opinion, history proofs that many talents in women have remained under-exposed, simply because taking care of all other tasks in life prevents them from developing their skills. Nancy started just now, after decades of taking care for many other people. I am happy with this original pen drawing, and I hope Nancy will create more, looking forward to it!
Love her great handwriting, too.
Thank you very much, dankjewel, Nancy!

Ti Ar Raden
Last week, 19th of February, the (lunar) Year of the Sheep / Ram / Goat has started. Exactly a month before I received this wonderful Ram, together with a Bull, Fish, a Cow and a bunch of other Farm Animals on the Cow's back. Created and sent by Ti Ar Raden.
The doodled/tangled Bull is a Pie Noir, the Ram is a Ouessant Ram.
On the other side some great stamps, among them a speedy Turtle and the Ermine (Stoat), the poor latter looses his/her tail to various coats of arms (among them coats from Brittany and the Netherlands) and royal cloaks (among them the Dutch one)... Fortunately the Ermine is alive and kicking in this beautiful artistamp.
Thank you very much, trugarez vras, Ti Ar!
