Information

Call them circles, call them dots, use a hole punch, use a template, draw them, scribble them, paint them, collage them. This is all about circles and how we make use of them.

Comment by Linda French on February 27, 2015 at 11:56pm: Mr. Dan, you are a rascal, but thank you for the very nice blog.

Mim, these 2 pieces seem so warm and healing to me. Warm colors, and the circles first seem like holes to a deeper view, but then unite the 'broken' pages. Really nice Linda

Comment by Linda French on February 25, 2015 at 6:35pm: I've sometimes used bubble wrap printing in my art journals, but just never, ever used it on mail art! Thank you for the great memory jog, Jan!

Comment by Mim Golub Scalin on February 25, 2015 at 3:49pm: BUBBLE WRAP! Fabulous supply!. We have a large supply of it in my husband's studio! Perfectly spotty, dotty, circular.

Bubble wrap, I totally forgot it, but it has a looot of circles!

If it's your new favourite supply, I might recommend you John *Scriptor* blog, he blogged about all great things one can do with bubble wrap (and January 26th it's Bubble Wrap day, don't forget :-) ).

One of my first pieces of mail art contained bubble wrap (sent to Ptrzia/TICTAC for her 'Bubbles' mail art project - if interested, scroll down on her site to see it).

Comment by Jan Hodgman on February 25, 2015 at 1:27am: True confessions...... the circles on the card for Heleen ( and a few others) are not stencilled, but a painted piece of bubble wrap pressed onto the background. My new favorrt supply!ite a
