And the winner of the MOBMA sort of monthly competition is...

Knukcle crack, heavy sigh and tee hee of delight.  After careful deliberation, and discussion with all members of the Moss/Kehoe/ Guyver clan around the dinner table, it is clear that nothing could be in worse taste than the semi-anonymous going for gold wildly inappropriate dental advice.  

I want to thank Thom for opening up a family discussion about the meaning and purpose of art and will be sending him an appropriate present soon. …

"L'ART DE LA CARTE POSTALE/POST CARD ART" EXHIBITION: MERCI BEAUCOUP/THANK YOU TO.......

all the people listed below who have sent me postcards in the last week or so.

On July 2nd I posted a 'Help!' message saying that I had 920 postcards and was desperate to get to 1000.

Which means that I've received 169 postcards in just 24 days.

It started with a 17.5 kg (38 1/2 lbs) piece of Zimbabwean stone, and ended as a Sangoma.

I was helped by Zebb Chakawa (who comes from Zimbabwe).

Here are pictures of Zebb, the original piece of stone, and the finished Sangoma.…

The Beauty and the Brave

The "beauty" came from Dimitra Papatheodorou in Greece. Her envelope was decorated and sealed so well that I wasn't sure if that was the art work or whether I needed to open it. I managed to slit the envelope…
