Thanks for yor compliment Diane.

This actualy was chocolate for "Sinterklaas", a Dutch holiday, aspecialy for children, where it is tradition to give a chocolate letter, preferably de first letter of your name. (besides other presents)

This was something new, not a letter, but two colors of chocolate to "play" with and make different motifs.

Unfotunately this mail art does not seem to have arrived ( like mor of my mail art)

Great posts Jeanette. The crushed can installation would make great trashpo wallpaper and the bug out blitz too. Mick, you didnt even need to mention the twinning. It is obvious for many reasons. Mickard, Richard..You both make art, you both make art from trash. No coin cidunces

Comment by Mick Boyle on February 10, 2021 at 5:37pm

Somehow I forget to mention that Richard Canard is my twin. Here is his bananahat portrait. I think you can see the resemblance.
