Hi Val, 'bruist' means 'sparkles' like in 'full of energy / activity . Champagne also 'bruist' as does asprobruis, a kind of aspirine. (You could replace Oost by Val, hihi).Hope the cap suits your tan from the Sigean Sun.

Yes, have been watching De Tour but not enough to my liking. Watched it on Belgium television as I get a spontaneous rash when I have to listen/look to Mart Smeets.

Good luck with the lotery but an exotic Geleen? Is there another one on this globe, then?

Thank you for your message. The temperature lingered around 100 F for a few days and very humid (bad hair days.) Now it is rainy and a cooler 80 F. We are off to to the beach for a two-week holiday hooray! I'll still be making mail art! Be well, Marguerite

Hi Val,
Where I can see those eight photos? What you have to do is setup with the car that I sent you inspired by the work of Wolf Vostell, photograph your work and send me the picture.
Greetings.

----------------------------

Salut Val,
Où puis-je voir ces huit photos? Qu'est-ce que vous avez à faire est de configurer avec la voiture que je vous ai envoyé inspiré par le travail de Wolf Vostell, photographier votre travail et envoyez-moi l'image.
Salutations.

Hi Val, I'm glad that you enjoyed the "scrap" add and pass! I hope that you found some things to keep as well.

I just finished up a series of prints and there's one for you. It should be in your mailbox soon!

I love summer --- it's my favorite season. I don't have any money to do any traveling this year, but a "staycation" in Oakland and San Francisco is a mighty fine thing indeed!

I got the car too...didn't really understand it at first but your pics cleared it all up. I guess I do need concrete.  Are you putting concrete in the box to mail it back?!?

Val,

Thank you for your lovely welcome!  I start Claudia's collage class on Wednesday and will pass on your hello.  I am very new to all of this but promise to send you some mail art in the next few weeks.  I appreciate you asking for me to do so!

Take Care,

Christine

Bonjour et merci Val!

I'm still getting my bearings around here. I WILL agree to an exchange with you seing as how you're the first person to really ask me on here.  Honestly I don't do a lot of Mail Art. I mostly do collages and leave them out in public as street art. I have started sending a very few items out as mail art but I spend such a long time working on each collage that I don't really have enough work to send to everyone who contacts me.  - I will be sending out a few items soon but when I do, I also send some out to addresses that are not expecting it. For instance, I have one I'm sending to an address in Paris where Theo van Gogh ran an art gallery in the 1880s addressed to "Current Occupant"... things like that. I know there is a vibrant community here in trading Mail Art and I'd like to be somewhat involved but I will have a very limited amount of work to share so I am forced to be quite particular. - Perhaps I'll write something to that effect in my bio... - Thanks for the contact and advise.

Merci! - Lance

Hi Val...so glad it got there...actually, I was pleased with this piece. There are several here on IUOMA that use it all differently...Jon Foster, who's pieces are coveted and recently from my new friend Carina Granlund. Carina uses soft gel medium for good quality photo transfers. I tried Carina's method and failed! So I'm trying Packing tape over good quality commercial advertising pictures...junk mail :)
Then you wash with running water the back of the paper so sluff off the backing paper and WAL-LA, photo majically stays on the tape with a see thru quality....I LOVE THAT !!!
This method does not work on items printed with an ink jet printer - DARN ;)
There are so many methods for transfering, but I go cheap...

Glad You liked it! :) It has held together a lot of piles of mail in its days...

The biker dude is a Swedish legend among Swedish cyclists, I had the opportunity to train with him once when I was about 17. I had eaten the biggest breakfast ever seen cause my trainer told me I was going on an 120-150 kilometer round  that day. But in the last minute he had arranged me to go with the junior Swedish team and this Gösta Pettersson, an honour for sure when he laughed at me when I could not withhold their tempo for 30 kilometers, because that day their mission was to train for fast short laps...

I wasn't good cycling material but I love the aestethicism about it. AND the Tour is better than the Giro... :)
