#TakeASketchLeaveASketch Part 3

Unfortunately, it's taking longer than expected for me to build a new mailbox for #TakeASketchLeaveASketch, but, it is an ongoing, interactive piece, so I decided to keep it going until a new mailbox is built. For those who inquire, I've been mailing a sketch along with blank pieces of paper. After recipients take my sketch, they can leave a sketch for me by sending or tweeting their images back to me. I already had success with one friend who lives in Nebraska. Her whole family (except the youngest baby) actually drew sketches for me. Awesome!

I wasn't sure who would be next to take interest in the project, but interestingly, I talked to a nice professional, Rachel, over the phone recently, and she said she had seen my website and wondered what #TakeASketchLeaveASketch was. I told her I'd be happy to send her a sketch as long as she sends one back.

Last night I sketched this gem and enclosed it with 4 blank papers so she can others can send their sketches back to me. We'll see if it works!

Thanks Mary, that means a lot! I think a lot of your thoughts and whimsies rubbed off on me. Whenever I'm blogging or mailing art, I think, "This is Mary's thing!"

Keep in mind if you visit the piece now, it is still a birdhouse. Once I have re-made a suitable box, I will post about it! But, regardless it is pretty cool to visit just to see how it's holding up (or not).
