I made these 35 books, blank on the inside, I screen printed a rough fleshy colored rectangle on the cover. The theme is s k i n. I have been doing mail art for some time now. I am mailing these books to artist around the world, they elaborate on them and send them back to me, I am working on finding a gallery to show the completed works, but combinding them all into one reproducable book would be ideal. This is the first time I have mailed out books, I have done postcards before and I have made several artist books, so I decided to combind my two endeavors. If you would like to participate, please email me your address.

Tue, April 26, 2005 - 8:21 AM...Aloha...
I think that I have done it ..I have made the book's and I am ready to send them ..I do not have a scanner so I Have to do it through the mail.. This is how it is giong to work ..I will send you one of my homemade book's then you send/give it to someone who will pass it on then the last person who has filled the last page can send it back ..It is like that game telephone, if we all make some and pass them around then it can become a big thing ..I have mabey a dozen book's right now but can easyly make lot's more ..Send me a message with your adress and I will try to get one to you as soon as possable ..I am happy to say that I am sending the first one this afternoon..Let me know if any one want's to simply trade homemade book's Lot's of love buddy's

Re: looking for artist
Mon, August 1, 2005 - 2:10 PMOf all the web art that I have seen that borders on cheesy I was truly touched and amazed by this. I laughed while tears ran down my face at the human condition. You just never know how fragile the human psyche really is...or how darkly amusing it can be. LOVE IT!!! Have to do it!
