Above: Examples of various mail art
Mail art is exactly what you think it is. It's when you customize (with art such as drawing, painting, collage, ext.) a letter, postcard, or any other thing you can mail in the regular postal system way. By whatever means and mediums possible. You can create some really cool art on just 4x6 post cards and then send them out and get some even cooler art back. Mail art is a really fun way to exchange art and a real awesome way to make new friends too. And it's super awesome to send mail art back and forth between pen-pals.
