Thank you for the ZALOPAS envelope that arrived today! Me thinks things are coming faster than before between Greece and SA? Maybe it continue! AND....thank you for what was inside, too. What was inside? And dare i "open" it more/ No, because there are very secure staples holding all in place. But I want to see inside the insider ;-(
hurrah!! it has arrived...wonderful wonderful work Cheryl!
i need to take it all in for the next couple of days, i'll let you know if we need more pages etc.
is there a particular sequence in which you'd like your pages to be?...i have not altered the order i found them in.
it's so enjoyable and smells like magic.. all the potions used to make it real! :-))) excellent the transfers! and quite a great variety of techniques!
Hi Cheryl! I just got your latest offering, for which many thanks. Starting with the envelope, that SA Africa Airmail cat is great: I love it's 'perforated head'. Did you make it?
And then there is 'GOTIJ' -- what does it mean (if anything)?
The print thingy inside is great ...and a bit scarey, too.
Alas, I can read hardly any of the message that you wrote on it. I tried holding it up to a mirror to see if it was 'trick' writing, but it wasn't. Do you always write like this? [I'm not sure 'write' is the right, ha!, word]
I'll be making some Mail Art stuff at the weekend, and will send you something back very soon.
The desktop photos are here, hallelujah, Thank You, Cheryl. It's good you sent a bunch; some should stay as is, so wonderful. Your handwriting is...really really out there.
Cheryl, very mysterious things at work here. Yesterday the 3rd installment of the tragedy comes in threes trilogy came back to me return to sender. The address was fine except South Africa has rubbed off a little. It was still visible, yet faint. I think the postbots need glasses. When i can scan and post it to you I will. It says "loss" which I guess is ironic because now it is found and I'm wondering if I'm supposed to keep it or send it back out? It was also interesting because it had peeled away from the backing but managed not to tear in its' convoluted journey and was completely intact.Happy Sunday:)
Hi Cheryl. Today I received the superb Mona Lisa artwork and I am working on my answer. It is great to hold such a tactile piece and to smell the printing ink again. Takes me back years. These days I use the computer and it does not smell, unfortunately. Is there a deadline for Mona?
I will try to Cheryl, but we will see if the PTB (powers that be) will allow it:) I also have a mona or two for you so will send both of those. Big hugs and kisses to you and the monkeys:)
Glad you got Zalop City Cinema! And there is a "musuem" on the way to Zalop City, should arrive soon. You can always send me another lettered building, I will gladly find something to make of it...ZALOP! xxx

A Case for Aesthetics - I do like that and the work.
Nancy Drew? Maybe. Perhaps Nancy the Nanny will appear in the TOXIS Adventure.

Yet drawn to a democracy of bullies
She casts a shadowed vote.
Her mark made
She returns to the revolution
Brings her fire to the streets
Where crushed hope rises like an asbestos phoenix.

It's so comforting to know others are just as addicted to randomness.
Looking forward to receiving my piece of the scared shroud. A button hole - wow! I am excited.
