WHY - from Nancy Bell Scott

[Marie Wintzer]

I have received this wonderful piece by Nancy a few weeks back. Life hasn't been a long quiet river for her recently, and I know that this work was her first attempt at getting back to art, at finding her feet in the studio again, so I'm really touched and honored that she thought about me. 
Nancy is making great use of what I call her "islands", and to me this work is about connections being made and being broken. The inevitable cycles of life. Islands and continents drift apart, rifts deepen and fissures extend (sometimes abruptly and violently). At the same time new ties are created, new elements are added to the chain of interactions (what I see on the left of the card). WHY, well, I don't need to go there, you know that WHY that is relentlessly trotting in your mind some days...
I know Nancy is starting to send out mail again, and for what I have seen it is as fab as it ever was, I am really looking forward to more correspondence with her. Muchly arigatoo my friend!

Yes, they are well worth checking them out, I enjoyed doing that yesterday. Highly recommended!

Thanks for saying it's poetic. Wait until I'm done with Tender Buttons! ;-))))

Great blog! Yesterday I didn't comment on the 22 new scans Nancy posted, and I think there's some fantastic work in there. So sort of a belated and condensed: NBS you are FAB.

 

Marie, your interpretation of the piece is just amazing. Poetic and insightful.

Your words in this blog make you poetic for the second day in a row, don't they? You're on a roll. No choking worries :--} 

[Marie Wintzer]

Thanks you two, glad you like! Don't choke please, Nancy ;-)))

[Nancy Bell Scott]

Austin, what a nice word--I'm happy you feel that way. Thank you for the extra lovely blog, Marie. You've choked me up.

I can't stop looking at this, it's mesmerizing.
