Haptic Werewolf 's 2nd strike of the day...large envelope and amazing Erni-collage!

Does it matter? If this amazing art is not to be seen in the museums around the world?

It will be seen under the olive tree at my seaside shack...and around the would at IUOMA!

What might be "Mental Dog toy", hmmm?

Always must take care to carefully examine Erni-envelope exterior and wait to see what

wonders are inside. Here we have reference to J.…

ART NATION from Karen Champlin

Always a joy to see a "Karen card" in the mailbox! A bit of "artful...artfully" and textured rubbings,

And in the corner....Karen knows,

add a fragment of a map…

Another envelope...this from Mim Golub Scalin with "mim'imal" inside!

Mim has done an amazing job of recycling MY envelope to her, so with the postage sticker from the USA, I still get those Greek stamps (which are new issue and which i did not have before) Thanks Mim!

And what about this "taped" card?

Who will find the "meaning" for "Beyond Don't"?

Don't go Beyond....or...what exists beyond "Don't"?…

A Japanese papers-n-print-overflowing envelope from Ms,Lovender in Japan!

Ms.Lovender, aka Heavenly angel, sent some beautiful textured Japanese papers, which I am not sure if I will be able to use...'may wish to keep them and not send them out as origami or collage. It will be difficult for me to part with such delicate papers. Also in the envelope were papers with fun images with bunnies and bears. These I have already in mind the creation of…

From Queen of Asemics, Karen Champlin...beautiful!

Another stunning layered collage from Karen was in my mail box today...(actually 2 cards from Karen!)

"W" is the unknown known of her asemic piece. And the scan does not do justice to the fine textures and colors of the papers, but they are FAB! Vintage penmanship writings in the background make for a gentle asemic landscape.

The the other card, small in size ,…
