From Nancy Bell Scott, For Dean for now

Thank you very much Nanacy, and as you know, at my age I don't even buy green bananas anymore.  So something for now is a good thing.  I really like Nancy's work.  This one is painted on a page from a math book and placed on hard cardboard.  And this is the correct way up, but I like turning in around from time to time.  Thank you Nancy…

OMO passport from Marie Wintzer

A real gem is one of these bookie things that a few of the Mail Artist make.  This one is speical as it has many hidden messages about French life in general, but the main story is that there is a tale in France that one can find a French passport as a free gift in a OMO soap box.  (OMO is the name of the soap, and has nothing to do with two men washing clothes together.)

It is a real delight, at least for me, and makes me laugh every time I pick it up, or use it on flights.  Thank…

Explore her Feelings and Ideas - from Nancy Bell Scott

This piece by Nancy blew my mind into a different hairdo. I could tell from the envelope...

"Explore her feelings and ideas" is written somewhere in that piece on transparent paper, almost completely merged and blended with the background, just visible enough for me to find it. And I found it. So I thought it would make a perfect title for any of Nancy's…
