Mail from Kiera

I received a nice piece from Kiera. "Something I Left". It looks like an Oscar fish. Inside the fish it says Quebec and superstition. This is a labor intensive piece so I really appreciate getting it. Thank you Kiera.

CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED

10 of you have some VERY BAD ART coming your way. It was mailed today. There IS a wARniNg on the envelope. As for me, it's time to brush off the glitter and make good art. I'll be a shadow from this site for 2 weeks or so while I detox from the GLitTEr and reconnect with my art soul. BYe aND eNJoy!!!!!!!

Goodbye Angie

Last Saturday Angie Cope shut down her site and left us. It was a long time coming. I really liked Angie a lot. She was there for everybody. She participated in conversations. She was very funny. I enjoyed her art and her as a human being. Angie sent me a long email after she left. She didn't feel IOUMA was right for her. She also said at times she was treated less than nice. She didn't feel like enough of an artist for us. All so sad to me. She's on a Ning site she feels more suited for. So… Continue

Mail from Marie Wintzer

I received a very nice collage from Marie yesterday. It is true to what I've seen of her work...beautifully subtle. Just the right amount of color for me. I will enjoy having this piece in my collection for a long time and I know we will correspond more. My turn now! Thanks Marie for getting us started.

Mail from PJ

I was excited to get this! I had heard about Zentangle Art but had never seen one. Then PJ said she was sending me one. All I could say when I opened up the envelope was Wow! So much work, so much detail. Thanks PJ!

Received from Bifidus Jones

This is my type of piece...mysterious. Bifidus has written short missives all over this work. Some not quite readable. I love it. The envelope is a first day issue! I used to collect stamps as a kid. Always wanted one of those. On the back of the envelope, his talent for writing shines as he writes what almost reads like a journal entry. A sad one. All in all it is a well thought out beautiful, emotional piece. Thank you Bifidus.…

Received from Angie Cope

My good friend Angie had noticed Erni's blog about my sending him a big box of paper. So she, in her kind snookie way sent me an envelope with at least a 1/2 lb of wonderful paper...etc! I LOVED IT! Yeah yeah I'm trying to declutter my studio, but an artist HAS to has a paper pile.....MANDATORY! So Thank you Angie! The scan in no way does it justice.…
