MamaBlogger365 – The FeMail Dialect: Speaking in Mandalas

You know how lovely it is to receive a get-well card in the mail? There really is nothing so tender as a Hallmark card tucked in to a pastel envelope, filled with a wish for goodness from someone who loves you. Here at FeMail, we send our own healing messages. For over 4 years, Suzi and I have been sending specifically designed creations, in our own FeMail dialect, that appear in our mailboxes, carried by the United States Postal Service. We use spirals, budding blossoms, dancing women, images of water, the moon or other planetary wonders to convey certain messages to each other.

Friends With Glory: the “Fe-Mail” art of Suzi Banks Baum

You know I am a Mom, right? I have 2 teen-agers and live in Western Massachusetts with my husband. I started my professional career as an actor, but since becoming a Mother, my compass has swung to true north. While mothering, I make art. The boundaries are blurry, which is art and which is mothering. I am writing a book about seeing and celebrating the sacred in daily life.  I blog about mothering and art onwww.laundrylinedivine.com. This kind of living totally turns my light on. I make mixed media collages, artist books and other creations. My “Fe-Mail” postcards track my journey, internal and external. They are just like the cards you buy at a tourist trap; only my postcards are intensely personal.
