Mail Me Art is a British-based project, run by Darren Di Lieto, the founder and co-editor of the illustration news portal the Little Chimp Society. Over the course of a year, the first Mail Me Art project brought together a vast collection of artistic work sent in the form of mail by both professional and amateur artists of all ages from across the world. A wide variety of media were used in an equally wide variety of styles and the work arrived on everything from postcards and envelopes to boxes and pieces of wood.

Mail Me Art 2 is now up and running — and ready for submissions! It is hoped that this will be as successful as the first project – if not more so!

Mail Me Art 2 will run for around 6-8 months (deadline for the project is April 2010), with a signed copy of the book plus an art-related prize given away each month to the artist of our favourite submission. They are planning to propose a follow up book, possibly called Mail Me More Art, and if they have half as many submissions as the first Mail Me Art project did they will run another exhibition.
