I received a beautiful piece from KDJ that draws from illuminated manuscripts:

I would just like to apologize for the reshuffle that happened between # 1 and # 2. There are logistical reasons for that - some of which we are all aware of.  IF anyone from either group has already posted to the OLD list - I undertake to copy and forward their work so that everyone receives work to/from whom they have sent. Thank you E for redoing. For those of you who have still not posted - please RELOOK at the addresses before sending. Macron has still not responded - BUT we have artists waiting to take his place if we dont hear from him - so - we're all on track? Any questions - we will do our best to answer.  I am also aware that there are MANY threads here.  These do NOT include all the inbox messages we receive :-) - so with such a large group - keep in touch as DVS says - its essential everyone is constantly kept up to date with progress and ALSO - who has and has not mailed.  Once work starts arriving to participants, we will open a new Receipt Discussion - Book # 1, Book # 2 etc.  If anyone HAS received work and would like to begin such a discussion - that would be excellent :-) - ok - any problems - PLEASE write X

Running through the first three editions, it looks like everything is in place again. Yes, Carl moved to ed #2. Kind of you Cheryl - yes, E is a total hero here as well as a fine asemic writer. Skybridge is a champ too. It does look like ed #4 is the open place again. That's an interesting one because there might be some real experiments there. So the deck is reshuffled. And everyone still on board is playing with a full deck ;)))

Lisa - thank you - between all the IUOMA friends, this hiccup too will pass :-) - I think DVS is on top of this - otherwise, if you want to join - there is DEF space in the 4th group - thank you X

As many of you are aware, Plush Possum Studio's has decided not to participate in the Asemics project. Please note - this means a change to Group 2.  We do not really want to interfere with book 4 - unless someone would like to take Rose's place. IF there is someone no problem.  Rose has undertaken to post back to the sender any pages she receives. For those of you who still have to post - please note the group is one short. Sorry about this everyone, sometimes life gets in the way

This is the third time I am posting this message - ADMIN time - I hope everyone is on track with their work in one or another way. PLEASE - no pulling out of the project once the posting has started, This is unfair to the rest of the participants and part of joining a project is an undertaking to complete the exercise to the benefit of ALL the participants. It is not right to pullout when people have already gone to the trouble of making you a chapter. This means that everyone who has committed SHOULD still be in the project.  These collaborative efforts cannot work otherwise.

Bruno,  How did you get this texture?   A gal interested in process and techniques would like to know.  That is if you would care to share your secret.  Wax paper?  Rubbing?  I love how transparent it is and I am very much into that right now.
