Two more handmade postcards. The first one, also inspired in Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte was sent to Gizem, in Turkey. The second was sent to Bárbara, in Portugal.
I got this on my mailbox some years ago, and nowadays I still don’t know who sent it to me. It just a photograph, a delightful one. All I know is that it came all the day from Phillipines to my wall.
I love the rebelliousness of snail mail, and I love anything that can arrive with a postage stamp. There’s something about that person’s breath and hands on the letter.
One of my long time favourite piece of incoming mail. It’s so soothing and sweet. It says: “For whatever we lose (like a you or a me), it’s always ourselves we find in the sea.”
As an aspiring photographer, it really makes me happy when people have that in mind and send me beautiful prints. You can’t tell it by my picture, but there’s a special bright touch of colour on these. This three were sent from Washington, USA.
I have a crush on handwritting and callygraphy, so I had this theme up on mail-art forums for some time. This was a funny postcard I got from Andrea Jay, in New York. It really brightened my day.
This is a heartfelt project that unites letter writters and postcard collectors, into a kindred community. For those who love and wish to share smiles, love and kindness to unknown mailboxes, all around the world.
