    my participation : tell me everything ; but i need standards - a book is a book

  • Valentine Mark Herman

    Dear Cheryl, Thanks for sharing your Dreams with me : I thought that you might dream about Moi, but never mind. It's all very Freudian, as is the delightful collage. Jung at heart, I'll send you something seasonal back in the next day or so.

    Thanks again, and best wishes...Val

  • Valentine Mark Herman

    Dear Ms Penn,

    Dr Jung-Hermann has asked me to pass on the following message to you:

     

    "Please choose one (or more) of the following concerning the interpretation of the dreams you have asked for:

    i) I would like an interpretation of my artwork

    ii) I would like an interpretation of my dream messages*

    Also, would you like me to examine your duck?"

     

    We look forward to receiving your reply

     

    Regards, the Analytic Cabinet of Dr Jung-Hermann

    (* this option requires you to come and lie on Dr Jung-Hermann's couch for a while.)

  • Valentine Mark Herman

    Your analyst write -- Leacing aside the nonsense words on the envelope ( Zalop & Gotij), although it is hard to leave them aside as they reveal extreme symptoms of Mail Art living-in-a-non-real-world syndrome), we come to the Dream Rules, although we are not told who makes up these rules and/or how they are enforced and/or what are the rewards and penalties fror compliance and non-compliance;

    Rule 1: of course Dreams RULE. if they didn't I wouldn't have a job, and would have to earn a living doing somewhere else. perhaps I could be a Mail artist. is it well paid?

    Rule 2: there are, alas, places where you can't take your mechanical duck, even in dreams. These include the Louvre (which has a strict no mechanical duck policy) and Buckingham Palace (where they have Prince Charles, so don't need another mechanical toy)

    Rule 3: well, it's alright for some who have hair is this rule, but somewhat inconsiderate for those who are folically challenged and should have the option to ignore it

    Rule 4: dresses of course, lead us into cross-dressing, but you will have to return to my couch later if you want to enter into analysis on this subject

    Rule 5: holes, with or without rabbits, are full of symbolism. as this is a public site, I'm afreraid that I cannot comment the significance they play in your duck dreams (although i do wonder how you have moved from ducks to rabbits, and why)

    Rule 6: on keeping one's feet dry, this is surely only relevant if one's feet are not webbed.

    As to the location of the couch -- there in SA or here somewhere else -- as lon,g as the duck can get from thee to me, it doesn't really matter.

    Regards, Your Analyst

    PS The Art was GOOG, too! is the dog on the back of your Dream Sheet Amy Watson's new pooch Star? They loook very similiar.

     

  • Neil Gordon

    Cheryl! Got the most amazing art and poetry from you! "The Women Who old up the World" Really beautiful! Thanks, All the Best!

  • Valentine Mark Herman

    Thank you. Tell your duck to talk to William Gates -- he might be able to solve your Cyberspace problems. If he can't, then i suggest that Monsieur le Canard tries the SA equivalent of NASA. Fly me to the moon, and good luck with your bits and bytes. Val

  • giuli.fiori

    Hi Cheryl! Just received your card and loved it!!! Thanks!!! I'm preparing a card to you!

  • Dean aka Artist in Seine

    Wow friends?  I never thought you would ask, but now let's not rush things.  What if you do not like my barcodes?  What if my Mail Art Omens do not provide me with funny objects for you?  And what if you start dreaming about me before you dream about Val?  This all sounds very dangerous … and that eye, there is something about that eye.  Maybe we are already friends but don't know it yet?

    Happy HOT and Merry Christmas! xxx

  • Jen Staggs

    I just returned from our farm Christmas and found your amazing painting fragment in the mail! Thank you for including me- I am tempted to frame it, it is so special. I imagine it hanging on several walls all around the world, an incomplete sliver of a complete concept. Very fab! Thank you and happy new year!!
  • TIZIANA BARACCHI

  • Dean aka Artist in Seine

    A woman who likes bar codes must be very special.  So we shall be friends, but I'm not sure if I will ever meet your standard of Mail Art.  Oh yes, but the way, did I mention that I don't make books or wash windows?

     I love receiving mail from Cheryl!  This was in a recent ZALOP envelope.  I thought ZALOP ment nothing but it must mean something?  Another puzzle piece.  It is FAB and I must send you some puzzle pieces very soon.  Thank you!

  • Dean aka Artist in Seine

    I always thouhgt that Opera and toothpaste did not mix.  Now I have the proof!  Yes, I remember that yours was the only one to have a white tester, and the message changed from "I'm dreaming of a ..." to "Wishing you a...".   I was quite careful about "wishing you" , and changed it to "I'm dreaming" as not to offend anyone.  Yours seems to be "the artists proof" and maybe should not have been sent, but the white tester was just too good.  Looking forward to the number 3 white mail art you sent.  I'll let you know when it arrives.

  • Emmy Verschoor

    Thanks, Cheryl, for your wonderful Zalop mail! I received it yesterday!

    I wonder how the big painting was, did you make a picture of it?

    To show us after a few months?

    The little part is already so shiny and mysterious.

     

     

  • Karin Greenwood

    Hi Cheryl, Happy New Year. Thanks for the wonderful mail art I received from you yesterday. It is so good hearing from you again. Love the original art and the lovely rich colours you have used !!

  • De Villo Sloan

    I think I figured out what Reed Altemus was doing

  • Heleen de Vaan

    Hi Cheryl,

    Thanks for your message!  I am glad to read the ZALOP - no, in fact it's LOPZA! - has arrived safely and that it
    wasn't  melted (or did it?).

    A funny idea that it lives in the fridge - here in the Netherlands outside there's one big fridge, while you are having Summer!

  • Valentine Mark Herman

    Bonjour Cheryl! Many thanks for your Piece no 2. It's very colourful, and works so well on tha paper pulp.no 2. If you want me to help out lifting the roll, just send me a signal...and make sure that you've got some other guys set up to do the heavy work.

    My own 2012 work is much less inspired -- lino cuts, which are great fun.

    I'll be sending you some in the next few days.

    Off to the UK tomorrow for a few days..........yippeee!

    Thanks again and best wishes, Val

    Hurrah!  Sooooo glad to know it finally arrived.  I'll just have to stop worrying about your mailbox and know that things sent from Seattle will get there eventually.  (It IS a long journey, after all...)

    Yep, it all my own needle tweedle-dee-ing and clickety-clacking!  (Elves are too prone to getting sticky candy canes mucked-up in the yarn...)

  • Eraser Heed

    Merci! ;)
