A drawing embellished with watercolour then cut up into sixteen pieces.  That would be blocks of four by four.  I got a side piece.  So if you received one of the sixteen, let us know so we can at least electronically put it back together again.  Like Humpty Dumpty !

Thank you muchty Jokie.  It reminds me of the song; "She was only Sixteen."

Thanks, Dean. Well, I have a mailing list of about 150 people. The more people write to me or scan and post the pieces, the more pieces they get, but not necessarily of the same puzzle. And some pieces have been incorporated into other mail art works by recipients. Also, I don't keep track of who gets what. So, it will take some sleuthing to get even one complete drawing, print, or painting, but it is possible. Of course, I encourage recipients to trade with one another. How close will anyone get? Will any one of the works ever get completely reassembled? And what about the few I did many years ago? Good luck, everyone! The game is on! O:) PS: Once I finish sending out my current batch, that will be it for this project until I decide to do more in the future. <3

If you provide a list of all sixteen people we can organize a group posting on this website or a group account on e-bay!  Who and how much would someone be willing to pay to have all sixteen pieces?  Now it becomes a performance piece.  Brilliant idea Jokie.

I am glad that you are enjoying this project. I probably have over twenty puzzles sent out to the world over the last couple of years. I wonder how many will eventually be put together again. O:)
