| Meet Dante... |
This is my 5th year in the LIBERATE YOUR ART POSTCARD SWAP, hosted by the ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS KAT SLOMA of KATEYESTUDIO! I have all the postcards that I have received over the years displayed in my art studio. They all bring me JOY!
In my previous post, you can see Dante on my decked out envie that carried my postcards cross-country to Kat!
My first postcard reminds us to "BE IN THE MOMENT"...for in a moment, life can change! A very cool collage by Mary Claire from Chicago!
Postcard # 2 is a lovely black and white photograph taken at the Florida Botanical Gardens of very big bamboo! All carved up by visitors who did not heed the sign that said...
"PLEASE DO NOT CARVE THE BAMBOO"...lol! This card is from Elissa, in Kat's town of Portland OR, who unfortunately did not have her pocket knife on her this day! Guess you'll just have to go back again:)
Postcard # 3 arrived from the Greek Island of Dodecanese, Rhodes and has a wonderful message for all artists. Margea says, "Find something you love and never let go!"
# 4 in the swap is from Darlene. This postcard reminded me that I have a wonderful collection of old cameras. Hope you will pop in to visit Darlene for abit of her Peace, Love and Photography!
Postcard # 5 hails from Susan in South Florida. Like me, Susan loves the color purple, and this flow painting project looks like it was great fun to create!
And of course, last but not least...a gem among gems (rock crystals) is from our WONDERFUL HOSTESS WITH THE MOSTEST...KAT SLOMA! Thank you, Kat for bringing us all together here, from all over the world, to share our individual love of art and creativity!
YOU ARE THE BEST!!!
A few side swaps that I received...

Mail art is great fun!
With much Aloha to one and all...thank you for stopping by!
I love the postcards you've received. I haven't seen them anywhere else. I'm looking for mine...I only know where one of them landed this year. I'm sure I'll be seeing you next time around. In the meantime...take care and be happy. Love to you and yours.

ReplyDeleteWhat a nice collection of cards you received! As a Librarian-by-Day, I am intrigued with how you re-make old library books as art! Nice job! -- Michele at Sweet Leaf
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen a lot of these, and I am so glad to see them here. I love that you still have all your cards up and displayed. I keep mine in little dollar store photo albums.
