End of Winter Update

I've been going through a bit of a dry spell lately. I've been crocheting, pen paling, and reading a lot, but I've not been doing much mail art. I did, however, make 8 postcards these past two months or so. That's better than nothing!

Night of the Book! AND MORE!

Tonight, during a spell of insomnia, I made this little booklet. It's my first attempt at combining mail art and art journaling. It contains six pages of artsy goodness! I'll mail this to a special somebody today.

Also, here are some pictures of some of the mail art I've made recently!

Mail Art and (LOTS OF) Crochet

These past few months, I've been keeping up with making mail art. I've also been crocheting like a maniac. Don't believe me? See below!

July 29, 2013 update

I had an awesome art-making session last night! It lasted ~2 hours and produced 4 completed postcards and the start of some others, plus the start of an art journal page. Here's the goods:

Also, I've crocheted 6 beanies in the past 2 weeks. If you're interested in buying one, please head to Green Owl Crochet (my Etsy shop).

February Update

I've been making quite a bit of art lately! I've mostly been making mail art, but I've done some art journaling, too. The top postcard was made for Jane Davies's campaign to save her local post office. Please check out the project in her blog post, here, and sent her a handmade postcard!

January Update!

On December 20, 2012, I opened an Etsy store called "Green Owl Crochet". Because I've been crocheting so much (usually 2 hours each day), my art-making time/energy has been somewhat limited. Nonetheless, I've still been cranking out some postcards and envelopes for my darling mail art pals.

December Update

Hi all! I hope everyone had a nice holiday. I was alone for Christmas, which was a bummer. I did, however, get some cool gifts, including lots of acrylic paint! Despite having a lot of pain from my fibromyalgia, I've been making a fair amount of art lately. Mostly, I've been making mail art, but I've also been doing some art journaling. I just got five new stencils in the mail today, so I have a feeling that today will be full of artsy goodness! I ordered a Gelli plate (a printing plate) a few nights ago, and I'm very excited for it to get here!
