Yet more sweetness from Erni Bar!
Giant candy bar. It's gone now. DeLISHious!
Erni collaged the whole thing so tight that I wanted to take a hammer to it, BUT that would have destroyed the collage. You can see what's left--rather interesting things going on in Erni's brain, I'd say, probably…

"Artefact": a special gift from Gabriel Xiloj of the Netherlands
This arrived three weeks ago and knocked my socks off: Gabriel sent me this because a couple of months ago I admired some photos he'd put up that played with the alphabet and signs and symbols. He has created his own symbols for the alphabet, and an imaginary story to go with the concept. The above is the front of this 7"x9" book; and the back plus his translation sheet follow:…

Postcard no. 288 from Mim, she's getting there!
A wonderful minimal work: The slicing or carrying that's happening to the alphabet here really appeals to me. The shapes and the spots of color along with it make for an extra nice composition. I love it, and always love her address side too, with "official" stamps: …

From Katerina and Dean in Paris
French cerealism and trashpo:
Behind on blogging, but realized today that this had better be put up before Katerina gets home from Paris, which is probably imminent? Very fun card, thanks you…

Svenja Wahl makes me wonder: What is Ray up to, anyway?
The clever Svenja sent me some hints:
Look at that envelope (front and back are shown)! Svenja's, always put together by hand, tend to be…

Something new from Catherine Petre
Catherine writes that she has been experimenting:
Bold and beautiful colors on the card (and envelope below), Catherine, and a very nice, organic style. Yes I do like it, very much! And also the Virginia Woolf quote on the back of the card: "Each has his past shut…

From Cheryl Penn, Ghostwriter Part 3

From Cheryl Penn, Sandra Granthon, and JJalltheway
Following Cheryl's example when blog is backed up: Very late to the blog due to a mix-up, this is Cheryl's fabulous Ghostwriter Part 4, which knocked my sox off when I opened it. It says: "He was CERTAIN the link was Durers self portrait -- The likeness was unmistakable" and "The manuscripts revealed NOTHING" and "Bound by Betrayal. No-one he could trust." Plenty ghostly, the…

Tabula Rasa from Guido Vermeulen
A tribute to Estonian composer Arvo Part: We have been conversing about contemporary composers and share an appreciation of Arvo Part. Part's "Tabula Rasa" came up as Guido was working on this incredible painting, and it evolved into a tribute to Part. I was enjoying seeing it in fragments in Guido's photos, and then, to my great surprise, the whole large painting arrived in…

"Lost Asemics" from Karen Champlin
Karen sent me this lovely card:
Part of a series, I think, as its full title on the back is "Lost Asemics #2." I love that it's on cardboard, plus the colors, composition, and (maybe needless to say!) the asemics. Thank you very much, Karen!

Our Own David Stafford: The Sane Choice?
You be the judge: The answer is in the eyes, isn't it? They are either very sane or very not sane; no in-between. And yes, this is for real. After he sent it, I asked David several times if this is really him in a campaign poster from the '70s. And several times he said yes. I ended up believing him because at very first sight the eyes looked familiar--yes, they're the same eyes…
