I must say that I really dig Edmund Lewandowski’s work. I’m sure that won’t come as a surprise to anyone who checks it out and is also familiar with Sketchy Spaces. Examples of Lewandowski’s work can be seen on the websites of the Brooklyn Museum, the Georgia Museum of Art, and the Greenville County Museum of Art, as well as, at MLive.
Lewandowski painted three post office murals: On the River (Hamilton, Illinois), Hog Raising (Caledonia, Minnesota), and Air Mail Service (Stoughton, Wisconsin).

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.
