Mail Art - Weather Report
The last 2016 Mail Art Swap with Jo and Lenna was Weather Report....and as usual totally different interpretations (though Sun and Rain played a big part in all lol). First up is what I received from Jo...
who lives in the UK and knows my family roots back to England. Perfect collage...
and a cool envelope to go with it!
Lenna's art is truly fab - she experiments with different materials and techniques - I love the texture she has created on this piece...
...and my personal weather report on the back.
A close up from her envelope.
Mine were both included in packages to my friends so no fancy envelopes. I dipped into my retro collection and found these two ladies (both are from ads for coffee).
Jo's is based on one of my favorite songs!
I found this lovely poem by Langston Hughes that inspired Lenna's card.
So that's a wrap. Our first Mail Art Swap for 2017 is Alphabet Soup...meanwhile, enjoy. Jewels
I love seeing your art up close & personal on your blog, jewels! Not to mention it is fun to see what Jo did and see my art again . . . Just a lot of FUN! Thank you!!
ReplyDeletep.s. I love my poem and we could use some rain here in FL!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful detailing of the processes and how individually each of you added your wonderful creativity!
ReplyDeleteOh goodness I enjoyed reading this post and looking at what you made for Lenna and what she made for you. This was a great swap prompted by a super idea from you (again).
ReplyDeleteHappy New Blogging Year! (My New Year's resolution is to dust down my blog).
