Received beautiful post from Claire Dinsmore yesterday. I was really careful not to damage it, as I slit the horizon with a scissor blade. It is grey in Suffolk today and the muted colours are in absolute synchronicity with my view. Can you see that my painted desktop even matches. I have some cabbages growing through the gate and from where I sit I can see their little green heads poking up, mimicking the wonderful repetition Claire uses so well.
Here's a close up of the envelope. Does Claire make the tape? I want to make tape. Can you buy transparent pages to print on? I love the translucence. Are those coffee beans or coffee bean stamps. Oh give me my carving tools, NOW.
And inside, cardboard, those delicious natural browns... My figurative mind sees characters, perhaps a mink in leaves? Why does it remind me of a Rhinoceros? Or maybe a landscape. Oh it doesn't matter. I love it and the fragments. DIURNAL! The numerical barcode was loose in the envelope, but there was a trace of glue in the place where I have (re) adhered it. Line, shape, volume, colour, content!
Claire calls this piece October No. 4. So glad it belongs to me! Thanks Claire.

Love how you use your stamps Claire, takes a while before I have tracked all, beautiful piece! Thanks Rebecca for your personal blog, more :)
Claire would by more diachronous than synchronous.
Thanks Vizma, I like your take on it. I think I'm a 'wordy' person and nothing would please me more than to have some conversations with a few mail artists!
I really like your blog, Rebecca! Like having a little chat with you!
