"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Glad you got it! I wish there was a "like" button here. Yes, definitely photograph it, as I was kinda excited about getting it in the mail, and insecure about it. So I stuck it in an envelope and mailed it without remembering to photograph it myself.

I also received an amazing fold out book (trashpo of course)from Holly Cooper. I need to get a photograph but it definately needs to be nominated for trashpo innovation. No one has created a trashbook quite like it so thank you Holly!!!

Beautiful stuff from Meeah Dan! and of course I love the key:)  this is a collab piece between meeah and me/i?you can see her similar whimsical touches

This is the wrapper that came full of wonders from Meeah. Looks like cyanotype, including a solarprint of the key to my heart. Great meaningless characters add a touch of...well...character! Sweet!



Mmmmm---This looks like a fragment of, oh, let me guess, maybe a lemon angel food cake recipe??? Wonder what it would taste like if I make it up with just what I got from Meeah... :-}



This is a wonderful little mobile of ATC-type cards. It instantly found a place in my heart and on my studio wall! Thanks so much, Meeah!
