I created this little tortoise character in the hope that having a welcoming image on the front of the envelope may encourage people to get in touch. The inspiration for this lot, not surprisingly, is Mail Me Art. I also own a tortoise and I wanted my character to represent myself in some ways. So a tortoise seemed like the perfect way to go. I sent these three with self addressed stamps and envelopes..if i'm lucky I'll get some decorated envelopes back.
In the place where I grew up I was fortunate enough to know all my neighbours and indeed literally grew up with some of them. This had a profound effect on my opinion of what home is to me and what good neighbours are. I am a firm believer of being friends with your neighbours, not just because it is a useful thing to do but because having friends next door is an amazing thing and turns the place you stay into a home.
