Pimp My Card

I am starting to upload a large collection of modified postcards on my new Tumblr blog.
These are one-of-a-kind pieces I did over the last few years and mailed out to folks everywhere. I wasn't meticulous about scanning everything, but I did manage to document 600 of them.

Happy Day of the Dead!

I created these 4 digital Artist Trading Cards a few years ago.

Trashy postcards I made today

I created eight different one-of-a-kind postcards by collaging found elements I printed myself. These are stickers on top of laminated bases.

Recycling mail-art into ATCs / first take

I couldn't wait for our live session next weekend to start playing with these. Here are my first examples of Artist Trading Cards created from recycled mail-art and wackyscraps.

Recycling mail-art into ATCs

Yesterday I went through mail-art sent to me and selected 50 pieces to build Artist Trading Cards on. This is the label I designed for the back of the cards.

Stay tuned for the results. I will be creating them at our local live ATC session on November 1st.

M O N E Y mail-art call

I'm hosting a mail-art call this year on the theme of money.

I figure that is on everyone's mind. Here are a few of the cards
I made and sent back to participants.

If you are interested, here is the blog.

The deadline is 12/31/09

New wacky stickers

My source material for these new stickers was images posted by some of my flickr friends. I also did one featuring Dame Mailarta.

See-through postcards using art from the PUNK era

I made a series of laminated postcards using 30 year old Color Xerox prints that were originally for buttons. These are from the PUNK era. I am mailing them out to some friends on the International Union of Mail-Artists.

baby wacky ATCs

I made a bunch of ATCs at our Victoria live swap yesterday. They incorporated very old pictures of me and my wife Virginia.

She got first pick!

Sneak Preview of Wacky's new project

 

I am setting up a photography studio in my basement to document my extensive collection of character toys. They have been hiding in boxes for years and now want to be seen. Through the wonders of the internet, I'll be able to share them with you.
