A refined young lady - from Jen Staggs

Jen's mail is the epitome of vintage. Here she used a card that already had a pretty vintage fragrance (the red flowers), and gave it her own twist. The dress is a pencil work on tracing paper, which gives a nice transparency. But the story really unfolds on the back of the card. It's like opening the doors of a sophisticated and elegant salon of the 18th century.

"A young lady, to be eligible for mariage, was not trained in… Continue

Multi sensory booklet - from Katerina Nikoltsou

My very first mail from Greece arrived the other day. And it smelled wonderful...

I remember reading a comment on Bifidus's haptic group where Katerina was wondering if haptic art was restricted to the sense of touch. I think the general answer was a sort of a "yes but no" type of answer, after which Katerina came up with this booklet where she cleverly combined multi sensory goodies. After going… Continue

Crossroads nr2 - from Douglas Galloway

If you scroll down my blog you will find the first postcard I got from Douglas Galloway a couple of weeks ago. I called it crossroads at the time. This one is the grid version of it, a detail of the beautifully named "South of Market" from the lattice series.
