Rubber Stamp Bonanza!

Thanks to Adam Roussopoulos and Joel Cohen for the excellent Peace and Mail Art Wave stamps that arrived this morning. My designs mostly with one exception . I have cut some wood blocks to put some of them on for personal use. The rest all going out to my regular correspondents.

New Hand Carved Rubber Stamps

Rubber stamps carved from erasers and printed onto blank postcards.Originally for a Pollocks Toy Museum collaborative project with Stephen Fowler and others but that seems to have been postponed until 2022. So I may do a new version for that if it ever materialises.

Carving Out Tokens

Back in 1972 it would have been "toe cans" I expect or something equally excruiating! These ATC's were a quick response for Hazel's call for "tokens" for her pop up exhibition at MMU - part of the Interactive Arts project which stemmed from her recent enamelling course in Sussex ( or was it Hampshire? )anyway, she's been making metal tokens and enamelling them at home and decided to share her recently aquired knowledge with a few students who seemed interested. She had a few cabinets booked in a corridor somewhere to put on a small show. She has rather more cabinets than she expected hence the invite. I also made some collaged ATC's which are elsewhere.
