Vispo by IUOMA member Jim Leftwich (Roanoke, Virginia, USA)

October 20, 2015 - I conclude the documentation of the phenom mail art package Jim Leftwich sent me with more spectacular vispo. This opening piece (above) is a superb print of a solo piece by Jim Leftwich showcasing effects that can be achieved and results obtained through the use of overlaying. I admire this work so much that I made several different scans hopefully providing more perspectives and insights.

On the reverse side:

Vispo collab cards were also included. I assume the point of origin is John M. Bennett (Columbus, Ohio, USA) and Luna Bisonte Prods. They are older yet classic works:

I am thrilled to have this piece that combines the talents of the great Russian visual poet Rea Nikonova, John M. Bennett and Musicmaster (aka Tom Cassidy of Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA).

Cornpuff is a visual poet in Eugene, Oregon, USA; Baron is a visual poet in Cleveland, Ohio, USA.

Many thanks to Jim Leftwich for sending this m-a with such a generous amount of FAB and important vispo!
