Wow, eh? The US Postal Service found this too difficult to deliver. Apparently it didn't like the handwritten first "e" in Nadine's last name. This came back today and I'm still laughing:

See, after studying it for 42 minutes, I noticed their circle around "Wendell." There must be hundreds of Nadines at #209: …

Mona and "someone else" above from Alicia, in mysterious, most appealing, acetate boekie-form. Mona may be bleeding, so I hope…

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

Really do love the unpredictable stitching on this very small two-pager: 

(And yes, two thumbs up for Rachel Carson.) Another great Nadine drawing/watercolor, along with missing camouflage birds (seen below on envelope), book note on back, and both sides of the envelope, not to be missed. The back of the envelope has a little something drawn by Nadine that makes my skin…

Three great drawings-paintings: Not only is Nadine's art very accomplished and unique, but she also tends to caption them in ironic and/or mysterious ways--so they are doubly enjoyable to receive.  Thank you, Nadine, these are a real treat to have--as is the Empire State Building, and half of a most interesting article about art-journal-keeper Janice…

Orrin & Sadie's 1963 Christmas card:

Sadie wrote a bit more of a greeting to the recipient on the back.

Nadine wrote to me on the back, "Was this the best picture Orrin & Sadie had for their card??"  I have to wonder that along with ya, Nadine.

As a fan of Nadine's funny envelopes and fantastic handwriting, I'm including both sides:…

Great postcard from "Overlooked Series, 2011":Nadine, is this a series that can be seen somewhere?  Excellent art and message.
