    Gold star, Jon - yes, Richard Hell known best I suppose for the Voidoids - deep punk for sure. Tommy Verlaine was the other option.
  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    Jon, I have seen your new work posted on a blog or two. I commented on one that Michalis in Greece has on the main page. Your images are amazing and the transfers really give a great texture effect. I played a bit with the tape, just picking up pics from the newspaper, but have not overlapped any. Fun technique and I bet the REAL thing is even better than the scanned images here. great work!
  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    and have a Happy Thanksgiving! ;-p
  • Katerina Nikoltsou (MomKat)

    goodie, goodie, goodie...can't wait until your mail art comes to Greece! I shall send out a card to you tomorrow that I made with the "tape transfer" from a Greek newspaper! Nothing fancy or advanced, just the image...but what fun!
    I have only played with this technique sticking the tape on newspaper...getting the printer's ink up and trying not to get the "paper"...great textures and grainy stuff. You'll have to let me know what you think...see you in the mail! YEAH!
  • PostMuse

    Thank you for the wonderful card! I will be sending back, though I am not wicked fast on turnaround.
  • Tomoe N

    Hi Jon,
    This is Tomoe from Japan. I received a mail from you today. I thank you for it! Nice to "meet" you.
