Ongoing : MAiLmeART.com, created by Darren Di Lieto, the founder and editor of LCSV4, is a little project designed to test your skills, make you some money and give you the chance to have a bit of fun. There are also some really cool prizes. Submissions can be envelopes or packages which have been drawn on, painted, dipped in acid, covered in paper mache (anything you want really) but they must look amazing and they must have traveled though the post with the postman able to see the work, so you can’t paint a canvas and wrap it up and post it to Mr. Lieto. The wrapping is your canvas or in most cases an envelope.
