Shadows on the Bridge found its way to my mailbox earlier this week, and I am totally torn. On one hand, owning a piece of this larger work unites me with all of the other recipients of the painting. However, it also represents the destruction of a larger work, at once captured by the photograph included and then torn asunder and sent around the world. The small 4x4inch square holds me in its thrall, both intrigued and saddened at the same time. Thank you, Cheryl.
Hello cheryl, I am owing a book to you! (I have been very busy!)
I am grateful for all your art and the inspiration that you share! The collaborative books were the most surprising of the exhibition that we have realized in the Museum and it is something that I would like to continue doing.
In the next week I will do something for send to you!
Your Trashbook & pro-anti-Minxus ("creamed tarts"?) arrived safely - both destined to be classics, I'm sure. You outdid yourself. Many thanks, more later.
"Mink of the Tangerine Oncoming" is on it's way to you.
Cheryl, thank you for the most fantastic book, it is simply superb. The cover printed in computer paper imitating canvas is a stroke of genius. I was given some as a sample ages ago and it is still unused, couldn't think what it was good for; so now I know what to do with it. Have you heard of Gail Whitter's book show? If you haven't send her one of your books already please do, she will appreciate it so much.
Thanks for the guest appearance at the Rodent Rodeo. You see SSSAO has wrought? It's called The Law of Unintended Consequences. But you did well, IMHO.
Thank you, Cheryl...great puzzle pieces...with a touch of blue :-) Tis blogged :-) and when the slow boat from Greece arrives in south Africa, one day, there will be an UFO for you (or the monkeys): And the slow-boat from South Africa has arrived in Thess! GOTIJ Cheryl Penn and Sue Hobbs!
Glad to see it did arrive. You never know with the beloved SA Post Office. Hell, making books is hard work, it seems to take forever. I think my attention span is more suited to the humble post card.
Hmmm, seems like there may be a lot of candidates for the OOUP...I know of many who have picked up odd jobs doing bit parts in mail art. Glad to see it's finally getting organized.
Terrific! It's just a joke really but sent with much appreciation for all your encouragement. I guess I love humor almost as much as drawing and visual art.
Hello Cheryl; the pages for the book are ready to be posted by husband. I cannot go out much because of hay fever, terrible this year. Thank goodness I got mail art and a computer! I am looking so much to the book (and autumn)

The burning question is: What is a mink-coated missile? Might you stop by the mink ranch and clear this up?

Always glad to know it arrived in your neck of the woods. I think I mentioned your "last trashbook" arrived - thanks. You haven't heard the end of it.
The tangerine is the wrong size. I think. But I said all M-L for your library.

Hello Cheryl!
My drums are going good. I've been playing a lot lately. And I never did that Zalop performance on drums... One day, who knows...
Anyway, you've been here in Portugal? In what city?
Next time come visit me. HAHAH!
Cheers!
