my REAL wall - 01 Feb 2011, originally uploaded by andytgeezer.

One more birthday card on there, as I went to Vietnamese Karaoke this weekend and got a card and a book from Alina, Elena's best friend. To be honest, I'm not sure what to do with the book, as I don't read much. Thinking of collaging it, unless anyone else reads Clive Cussler? I'm quite happy to drop it in the post if it will find a good home. I also hope that she doesn't tune in too regularly to this blog...

B, I am loving the development of your art style! I feel so priveleged that I'm getting to watch it unfolding before me. Keep it up!

Whoop! 2 weeks in a row with mailart from Rachel Freeman! How lucky are we here at my REAL wall! I'm a huge not-so-secret admirer of her work!

your REAL wall by mim4art - 01 Feb 2011, originally uploaded by andytgeezer.

Mim has been a supporter of my REAL wall for a long time, sending her first REAL wall back in August 2009.

One of the first members of mailart365, Mim's output is prolific, to the point that I measure what number I'm supposed to be on by what number she's on (which usually has a suffix after it, like 63a, 63b, 63c as she is doing mailart1000 it seems!)

Here's Mim's latest REAL wall, covered with mailart365 gems, including one of Elena's quilled pieces, Spring Blossom. In amongst all those, I can spot a Katerina Nikoltsou, Red Letter Day, Dewi and many other superstars of mailart!

Another active mailart365 member, Gabby Cooksey is a freshman at art college. There's my St. Aldates reimagined on her wall alongside some more mailart365! I love the fact that there are so many more happy mailboxes as a result of the project.

Lady L was one of the earliest members of Mailart365 and her wall contains loads of mailart from the project as a result. On her wall at the moment is a piece by Elena, so she qualifies for a spot on my REAL wall.

my REAL wall - 26 January 2011, originally uploaded by andytgeezer.

I took a day off yesterday from posting as it was my 31st birthday!

This week has been really hectic with post. I finally hit 100 postcards sent and received on postcrossing, and we may be seeing something exciting on their blog very soon, so watch that space.

2 postcrossings up and a wonderful piece from Martha Miller, her #1/365 Bird Brain. What a pleasure to get such an awesome piece from such an awesome artist.

One of the 2 Chinese new year (year of the rabbit this year) cards comes from Red Letter Day and the other from Dumpster Diver, who we haven't seen for a while, so it's great to see her back on the wall.

JJ sent 2 pieces our way this week, one for me and one for Elena, from her found objects series. This is brilliant, as the two marry up perfectly and create a diptych. A disguished one at that.
