Oh, Nancy--Thank you, thank you for the mail art! It's luminous, like stained glass.... I really appreciate your sending it, and I know I will love looking at it.
crying real tears over what little is left of my NBS stash:( ... tis low as I made several trashbooks last week. still pondering what to send you--want to make it really good
Slauerhoff wrote a gripping novel on the human condition of the Chinese people long BEFORE Malraux (sic).
Received a parcel today from Nogueira in Brazil with 2 CD's with Brazilian music and 3 DVD's (movies): WOW! He always asks me stuff. I recently mailed him 2 books on Dadaism, so this is his way of saying thank you, great exchange!!!
So happy to see your photos of the boekie you sent. My poor scanner is ill, and I couldn't do justice to your beautiful art. I treasure it dearly. Many, many thanks xx
Nancy, your words so inspire as does your work. Do you or did you teach? Words are not my gift, so i cut, paste, draw and splash color in hopes of making up for this shortcoming.
Thank you for your commentary. Due respect dear woman.
Thank you for ALL the wonderful tissue paper, oh, I shall have much art to do now! And your yarns and tissue overlays in the little book are amazing! What a joy to the sense of touch! I blogged it along with a few other boekies that were in my mailbox when i returned home. Thank you soooo much!
Try to find the CD "sings Slauerhoff". Who was Slauerhoff? A sailor of The Netherlands who started writing poetry and novels (1920's - 1930's). A radical man (I guess "on the left of the communist party"). He discovered Fado as a sailor in Portugal and wrote Fado poems (in Dutch); decades and decades later Branco discovers the fado poems of Slauerhoff by the Portuguese ambassador in the Netherlands and puts them on fado music. This is a true story and blows my mind. One of her best albums so far!
Thank you for the comment. It really means a lot to me. I am very new to this....including my own art. I am still working on letting go of fears of self-expression. You're words are ever so encouraging.

Hi Nancy,
Here is an English page on Wikepedia on Slauerhoff
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._Slauerhoff
The China novel is «Life on earth» (they don’t mention the content)
I am drowning in music from Brasil and Ireland right now and loving it
Guido

Branco is one of my absolute favorites!
