Monkeys Love Banana Line Art

Here’s more of the banana mailart for the World Banana Day and International Banana Bread Day Mail Art Exchange.

The fourth piece is going to Anna Banana who’s turning 74 years old on February 24th.  I made her a fun Banana Party birthday card.

Hope she has a fun banana party on her birthday!

My next mailart piece is Monkeys Love Bananas going to Brazil to Celestial Escribe.  I drew Lil Dave the monkey for the price of one banana and colored it with colored pencils.

I also included a banana bread recipe for Celestial to bake his own banana bread!

The sixth mailart piece I created goes out to Mathom House in Italy. Banana Mailart Line Art was created with watercolor.

Banana Boat Pride Party

I’ve been trying to get back into mailart and just kept putting it off.  I set up the World Banana Day and International Banana Bread Day Mailart Exchange on IUOMA with 11 other banana lovers.  I made 11 pieces of banana mailart.  I had lots of fun doing it!

My first piece went out to Dean in Paris, France.  He set up the World Banana Day exchange last year.  He always sends fun mailart pieces.  I sent him the Banana Party mailart piece.

The next mailart piece goes to Rebecca in Suffolk, England.  It’s a fun Banana Boat floating on the water.

The third mailart piece is a Banana Pride Flag going to Momkat in Greece.  Hope she has banana pride too!

Spring Mountains

I haven’t had a chance to post in awhile.  I got married in May, so I was busy planning that with my husband.  We’re now off on a 6 month honeymoon. 

Here’s a postcard I sent off as part of the Keep Writing Postcards postcard project.  Hope is away in Italy, so we have to send postcards by writing a story or drawing something.  I am REALLY behind on these postcards.  I haven’t gotten any myself unfortunately.  This postcard asked us to draw or tell a story about how we’re enjoying our spring.  I drew the beautiful Alaskan scenery on the balcony of our room during the Alaskan cruise (which is part of Honeymoon #1).

I can’t draw very well – as you can see!  My 5 year old niece draws better!

I hope to start making more mailart during our travels.
