ETHER from Marie Wintzer in Japan...BREATHE?

[Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)]

Great "shredpo" Ether arrived from Marie, with instructions to "beware of ether". Amazingly textural under the clear film cover and delicately stitched and knotted with white threads. Very tempting to want to open and create with that shredpo material...mmmmmm, nice!

Flip side also stamped with instructions:

DO NOT BREATHE! (well, Marie's art does take one's breath away!)

Me thinks those are trashpo containers in the photo...neat and clean in Japan.

And fantastic flowing knotted threads! A beauty!

As Marie's first "Ether" never arrived in Greece, but is floating somewhere in the lost-in-the-mail cosmos...she sent this second "Ether" in a typical brown long envelope that we so know comes from Japan. It arrived with another brown envelope from Ryosuke.

Many thanks, Marie! It takes my breath away!

Your ether is fantastic, Marie! Can't get enough of it ;-) (Just in case you have more to send..hint, hint)

Not to worry...under the olive tree there is a glorious sea breeze blowing in plenty of oxygen (and salt-sea air)

Katerina you are blogging faster than your shadow! AND all of this under the olive tree! Such a nice blog, thank you!! Yes, I thought you would enjoy a bit of Japanese neat and clean trash :-))) but stay away from the ether!

FAB :-)!!! At least the post and your blogging skills AND your camera are working under The Olive Tree.  Breathing in Ether - that will knock you out - right? :-) X
