May 19, 2013 - The release of a book about MinXus-Lynxus is always an occasion for celebration, even if the subject of the tome is weighty. We are…

This was unexpected and appeared in the post yesterday, I was extremely tired and unable to gain access to my laptop.

I knew immediately the stamped image is self portrait and has such fine details. I haven't get much carved eraser stamps in my stash and trying to new German lino cutting tools- 1mm grooving and 3mm vein. It's almost impossible to be creative under…

I found a memory of you and your doings in the work of a friend....Sorry, I forgot to mail you a little something when I could....

I found this empty addressed envelope yesterday. I would like to send her a letter explaining that I found it so as not to appear like a stalker.

Also a small jar, well 2 cm wider,  from the Haptic Werewolf of  the Off Scene Akademie Hamburg!

But you cannot imagine ALL that was fitted inside this little jar:…

as there is usually an EAT ART delicacy inside (now in fridge so as not to melt in this heat):

This time CHOCO covered mini butterkeks.…

Long awaited ERNINESS arrives in Greece! Mailed April 22, in Hamburg, may be the

looongest delivery time between Germany and Greek ...but it is HERE!

Always a fun adventure to get a postal notice that a parcel is awaiting to be picked up

as they call…

*Thank you" again, Claudia…
