• Nancy Bell Scott sends a touch-of-blue beauty!

As you have not seen fit to join us in the world of fakebook, I had to come directly to you here at IUOMA to share my Rustpo finds of the day. Know that you are consistently in my thoughts, Dear Friend! ENJOY!

:D Will be sure to share more with you as they are uncovered. The current rains are keeping me from my trash-aelogy dig, but I hope to return this weekend. Hope you are well and Making Art Every Day!

Thanks so much for the awesome envelope and altered book page! I love altering books and their pages so I hope to send you one in kind soon. I've been behind on mail art but hope to get caught up soon. 

Nancy! sorry its taken me so long to get back to you, i have not been feeling well, the piece you sent me was one of your regular delightful works of art and asemic( was not "strange" as you suggested) and lots of goodies from the scrap heap!!!see you in the mail
,be well,
Neil

Got your wonderful mail art my friend!!!! You have not veered of the course of your art! Hope you are well, always a pleasure to correspond with you!!!

Hi Nancy--Recently I picked up my mail art and found your collage, 'above the fray'. Thank you for remembering me. I have admired your art and am delighted to be the recipient of one of your treasures. It will be added to my IUOMA photo stream and be blogged soon at http://decordisart.blogspot.com/

The 1966 Polish Millennium stamps and the  others that you used were a surprise. I had to look up the Polish stamp and was impressed with the history of the country that it commemorates and am sending you the link just in case.

Thank you, Nancy...I'll write soon.

You guys okay out there? I've seen some scary videos of the flooding.

Uh-oh, looks like someone's having a birthday. Have you dried out from the storms last week? It'd be awful if it was too wet to light the candles on your birthday cake!! (I also hope no one is leaving your birthday cake out in the rain… wasn't that a song?!!)

Getting the cake dried out for tomorrow, Oct. 11?  :-)

Salem absolutely LOVED his day at the salon. Must be relaxing for him and/or he loved the attention!

Nancy Bell. Your mail art (most recent) is packed in my suitcase. Thanks!! Doesn't look like you are in a slump to me. Heading to the desert. Will see Nadine. 

More pics for you that I took in the fall, but never made time to pop over and post for you. Thinking of you and hoping you are well. :D

Wow, Nancy -- thank you so much for the 3-scrapper! Your work is just completely amazing. I love the text (which I have to try to read) and the layers of torn paper, the ink and paint--everything about these is wonderful. Your envelope is groovy, too. And Happy Birthday!

I'm honored, Nancy!

Thx NBS. FAB new work. Already getting a great response.

NBS, I'm glad you like them. Keep them if that's how it goes.

Asemic Front is going to work and it's going to be more than collabs, so no pressure there.

My problem is I don't know how to make an unfinished piece. All the collab foundations I'm making end up being finished pieces.

So I would very much like to use your work in some form in AF. So maybe it will be collabs or some other format.

But it will work out. Thx for the message, DVS

Nancy Bell!  What a loverly surprise to find your envelope in my mail box.  I knew it was yours immediately.  Isn't it interesting how we can recognize the "voice" of our mail art pals?  Loved the beautiful little three-scrappers.  They make me want to get back to my happy art fun room--soon, soon, soon.  Thanks so much.

thank you very much you took part in my project!!I'll let you know...keep looking in my album LEX-ICON

Hi Nancy, I am writing from Germany and have seen some of your collages by accident!

I am really fascinated by them, because I am also a fan of collage and love to work with different papers and materials. So I would love to exchange mail art with you and send you something of myself the next days!!

Best wishes !!

Charlotte from Göttingen, D

Thanks you Nancy. Yes I remember. I've many mail art from you. They always smell so good et the color is not going away.... You are a great artist.

Hi Nancy,

Hope you had a nice day today.

Just so you know, I mailed something to you today.

Please post when it arrives and I hope you like it.

Norma

Howdy, Nancy. I'd love to show the Fikasso but that was years ago and I've no clue where it may be today. Probably composting in a landfill somewhere. YOB-f PS. I think that 'lope was the one in which you sent the asemic piece I admired.

and speaking of envelope contents incompletely recognized... I just found a response from Jim Leftwich from 2004!!! I'm afraid to look and see if I responded to it earlier!

ya hoo and hoo ya!  look forward to it.

Hi Nancy--thanks so much for the 3-piece collage. I will be posting later in March.

nancy bell scott!!  your works sliding out from their darksome envelope....what gifts...  such loveliness!  had to unearth and read aloud the whole poem!  many thanks.

Nancy, I can't tell you how excited I am to be the proud owner of some of your gorgeous minimal ink pieces! I am in love with the simplicity and tiny bits of color. I keep staring at them, wondering what message I can take from them. They appear to have a mystique about them, if only I could grasp it. I can't thank you enough for your kindness. I will repay with something...something not nearly as good as your work, mind you. :-) I will scan and post your pieces eventually but doing that usually takes me awhile and I wanted to at least get this thank you sent! 

Hi Nancy!!! Thanks so much for your mail! Love it!! See this: http://iuoma-network.ning.com/profiles/blogs/from-nancy-bell-scott-....

Hi Nancy,

Best wishes! Charlotte

Happy Monday, Nancy! Wanted to ring your BELL (see what I did there!) and tell you that I’m working on something for you today. It will be dropped in the mail  mañana! Have a good night!

Thank you Nancy for the lovely scrappers that I received today - they are beautiful, I really love the concept and the execution.  

I am a little embarrassed that I accidentally bombarded you with two mailings.  I can't remember where I left my memory, I think it was last seen in my 40s, sigh..
Anyway, thanks again - totally love your work!

Nancy, your work honestly takes my breath away. Thank your for the FOUR 3-scrappers! So delicate, they're like flowers or leaves. I love them.
