Incoming: Kathy Barnett, Amy Candiotti, Dragan Jukic, Lutz Anders and Circulaire 132

A hilarious piece from Kathy. Reminds me of when I was a kid and we'd drive past a pasture with stinky cows - my dad would roll down his window and take a deep breath saying "ah, smells so good!"

Amy sends and updated version of the collaged anatomical head she's been working on. Splendid stuff.

Two fantastic pieces from Dragan. Absolutely love these.

Lutz sends a reminder about his Picasso call. I keep meaning to do this. Hopefully I'll get something done today so that it can go out in tomorrow's mail. Love the block print on the card too.

Selections from a new issue of Circulaire 132:

i love your take on the order thom! ah, farm fudge...i guess that goes with the cow pie i lost my shoe in once or twice as a kid.

As someone who lives in cow country—Vermont in the U.S. at one time had more cows than people—I can tell you that the technical term for what that smell was is "farm fudge."

I like the way that you've documented the pieces here...

Kathy's piece introduces the topic;

Amy's piece illustrates the atomic -level olfactory response to the smell;

Dragan's abstract piece looks like a reconstructed black-and-white holstein;

Lutz's beautiful carved print reminds us of the dangers of effluent run-off (of the topic);

and Juin reminds us of the aquatic life that can be affected by it (with the stamps on their envelope)!

Well done! Ken Burns will be in contact shortly to collaborate on a documentary...
