Katerina Nikoltsou, Thessaloniki, Greece

I received this today, past deadline, but Katerina wrote that it might arrive post deadline. I'm happy to add it to the blog and will bring it by the venue. There's a good chance that it'll be on display.
Thanks, Katerina, for another fun Mail Art piece.

Vivien kohler, Camp Lutherlyn, Pennsylvania, USA


A simple admonition, an exclamation, BIKE! The tire treads show a lot of actions, which we're really looking forward to.
Thanks, Vivien, art camper, for your entry.

Bob Isenberg, Camp Lutherlyn, Pennsylvania, USA



This print is quite interesting. I like the way the bicycle appears on the background and the use of stamps for the text. I think it's a monoprint, but maybe Bob can comment on this and tell about his technique.

Thanks for sending, Bob

Xavier, Camp Lutherlyn, Pennsylvania, USA

The art teacher at a summer camp, sent me a message that she was sending me Mail Art from her art campers.
How fun!
Here's one from Xavier that looks like it was done by rolling something on the paper to created the look of bicycle tires rolling along. How's this for action and the thrill of the race!
Thanks, Xavier.

Cernjul Viviana, LanĂºs Este CP, Buenos Aires, Argentina


This entry from Argentina is made to look like a postage stamp, making me with there was one just like it. It's so playful. Also, included in the envelope were these small prints on paper, as well a couple done on fabric. What a nice submission.
Thanks, Viviana.

Dorian Ribas Marinho, Balneario Camboriu (SC) Brasil

 Three images arrived from Brasil/Brazil.

The first is an original print, and other two are printed on paper that is adhesive on the reverse.

I think they are collographs, but I'm not sure.

The images are very interesting and I like them very much.
How they relate to bicycles, I do not know, but the address was to MIM/BICYCLES so they were meant for the exhibit.

Thanks to Dorian for sending his art work.

Ryosuke Cohen, Osaka, Japan

Ryosuke Cohen sent me Brain Cell - 915. I was quite delighted to receive an entry from him. I looked very hard at his submission, knowing there must be a bicycle in there somewhere, or the idea of a bicycle. He has many images from Mail Artists around the world on this print, and my friend in Greece pointed out her owl on what could be a unicycle. Yes, there it is, a bicycle in there!

Thank you, Ryosuke. Your Brain Cells are always welcome.
