COVID Card #339

April 9, 2021 | 0 comments

Robert Lepper was an artist, designer, and educator. As an educator, he is said to have encouraged his students to look at every day objects as potential works of art. One of his students, Andy Warhol, excelled at not only looking at every day objects as potential works art, but making them into works of art.

While a few major museums, like the MoMA and the Whitney, are said to have some of Lepper’s works, the only museum I could find that displays his work on its website is Carnegie Museum of Art,

Lepper created two post office murals: The Lumber Camp (Grayling, Michigan) and Noble County-Ohio (Caldwell, Ohio).

COVID Cards

The United States Postal Service has been hit hard by the pandemic. Controlling elements of the Federal Government (the president and Republican Senate) do not want to provide aid to the service. So, it’s up to us. It may seem insignificant, but if we all sent just a few letters a week, we could help ensure that our daily, free mail delivery service continues. For the past (see the card number above) days, I have drawn a card each day and mailed it to someone the next day (none are sent on Sundays; two are sent on Mondays). Please consider mailing cards and letters while we still can for 55 cents (first class letter postage). If the USPS fails, you could find it costs $8 or more to send a letter. And that’s just one of the ways we will all lose if the USPS shuts down.
