Comment by De Villo Sloan on January 6, 2017 at 3:13pm: While the rest of us are mucking around in the first dimension, Richard Canard (Illinois, USA) is making 3-D asemic poems (plastic). Interesting

Comment by De Villo Sloan on December 29, 2016 at 12:47am: Thanks Jan and Vikki Johnson. Yes, looks like ghostly text blocks there to me.

I hesitate to follow Vikki's wonderful work with our esteemed group member Mona Lisa, but that's chance operations for you. Anyway, Moan Lisa took up this asemic war idea at one point and sent me this cardboard platter from a frozen pizza w. a message for all of us. You can even see the grease pools. Thx Moan Lisa!

Comment by Jan Hodgman on December 29, 2016 at 12:30am: Here's a grand piece I received from Vikki Johnson, which she calls, "Asemic-ish." It may be difficult to see the marks that bring that moniker, as it's in a sparkly finish. Quite intriguing!

Comment by De Villo Sloan on December 27, 2016 at 3:57pm: I've been partial to textile vispo since Cheryl Penn, our co-founder, was doing it. So I'm thrilled to have gotten this from Amy Irwen in Minnesota, USA.

Comment by John M. Bennett on December 24, 2016 at 12:55am: cool stuff, yes!

Comment by De Villo Sloan on December 23, 2016 at 11:57pm: Artista Daily (aka Maralena Howard) (Michigan, USA) sent me a great artists book with some of her vispo. I think you can see some influences from members of our group. Thx to Maralena.

Comment by John M. Bennett on December 23, 2016 at 1:32pm: Jim Leftwich, John M. Bennett, & Baron

Comment by John M. Bennett on December 23, 2016 at 1:30pm: Yes, DK has had a hand with these! they look great

Comment by De Villo Sloan on December 23, 2016 at 1:28am: Diane Keys sent me two copies of this Jim Leftwich piece. Some of you probably received one of these from Jim too; I did. I think Diane has altered these, though.
