fantastic piece from Nancy Bell Scott

I really love this piece it is so colerful and balanced and I can identify the hand who made it. Its great to watch the development from mail to mail, and it would be nice to attend this path of art further on from time to time.

Happy Winds-Day

Greetings,

Today the Sun is shining, the wind is keeping a golden breeze running through my house, and I feel like the troll who doesn't want to get out of the cave.  I went through a Sleep Study last night and it was like being hooked up to every appliance in ones house; but hopefully it will show what is going on in this crazy sleeping mind of mine.

I have a stack of mail art to send out which I am fairly proud about; since I'm usually only able to do one a week. …

TOPOGRAPHICAL REFLECTIONS

 

The lozenge shape, which is dominant in the drawings, “Topographical reflections”, appearing on the stamps, emerged initially in Thomas Bang’s drawings from the mid-sixties.

Catching up - received from Cheryl Penn, Dean Marks, Katerina Nikoltsou
