This is no ordinary comic strip, when Sarah is on the move it's often embroidery we are speaking about and this is no exception! Unfortunately my scanned picture doesn't really show where the embroidery is, but it's the black around the text and between the strips. Sarah is telling me that this work/comic strip is to be continued.. wonderful! Thanks…

One of her now-famous lasts arrived yesterday, and I'm in love with it: 

I couldn't be happier with my first last. Here…

... a surprise because these were "hidden" inside the bird I blogged a few weeks ago! Alicia asked me then "Did you look inside?" Wow: 

With it came a lyrical and poignant note typed on nice vellum: …

And they are intricate beauties: 

Wonderful, and they were folded into this fabulous midnight blue paper, every inch of it painted, with layers of other color and scratches peering out: 

Thank you very much,…

Maybe she's hoping to steal him from Snow White? Walt Disney had an answer for almost anything ... we used to hope ... 

Very artistically done, Janine, and we'll show below the other side, which hints that Janine and I had a fun little talk one day about Prince Charming: …

The first shows polar bears that were among old book pages depicting animals that I'd sent to Svenja. She sent this photo back after giving it a wonderful context, on a painted book cover: 

She says "These guys indicated to travel right back to you--couldn't do anything against it." Who knew they'd talk?? I hope they aren't telling SECRETS, Svenja.

Wait, the one above is Dream #4, a gorgeous dance of color and form. Below is Dream #3:

My scanner doesn't do this subtle piece justice. The purplish-blue is intense, and surrounded by deep versions of rust color that speak to me in a big way. It…

This needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. It's a delicate beauty, and I love it.

Thanks again, Laurence…

The bark is delicate and wonderfully soft (but with inner strength). To try to paint on it is most tempting. 

Lovely…

The note was typed on Katerina's old Olympia Greek typewriter, and I can't remember what I did to deserve it, but did win it in some sort of contest, luckily for me. Katerina said she would translate it when blogged (couldn't remember otherwise!), so here we are. ... ? Thanks again for both,…

I'm very pleased to have these fine pieces, Eduardo--thank you again very…

Who wouldn't behave herself with a knitted gun in the room?

About the silhouetted card above, Nadine writes on the…

Sarah says "All girls need gold!" 

Thank you, Sarah--I especially need it to help me live up to my Fancy name ~

One of Susan's lively red-white-black mail arts, with whimsy and style: 

And a nice note on the back, too. Thank you very much, Susan ~

Dean makes a profound lesson in drawing back to the violent prehistoric times. It can not go wrong, everything must be built up from scratch, even in the drawing?

If you look closer, you can see Dean's careful drawings on these strange nuts that no scientist has discovered yet...…

Don´t know how you did this piece, Janine, but it looks fabulous! It seems to be lot of layering, collage and acrylic medium, the structure is great to feel. Thank you!

PS The stamp is very sweet.

Very rare DKult ATC/lottery tickets (master sheets). Circa 2009. Now re-issued by…
