Listen to the birds, eat wheat and have a flashy free and easy time chill in

Love the colours of Janine's psychedelic, positivity infused trashpo! My transcription:

Avez ard free and easy fun fro friday to satur year ve o o chllin on sound ust enjoy yourself free & easy you make them FLASHY  y day chavin. 

I keep seeing creatures and a human form and presume the swiss stamps are sending sublimal messages about healthy eating and taking time to listen to the bird sing. 

Thank you Janine! 

Kat's Sandpo

I'd like to know about Kat's technique.  I imagine her on the beach rolling sand  and paint... Thank you Kat, love the contrast of the sides of the postcard!

Theresa is zining!

Theresa wrote me in response to an off-line conversation. theresa writes that this Zine #1 is "The Miraculous Birth" One of the rectangles features a letter she has written to Simon Warren. 

Jon Foster sends a superb tape transfer

Junque and actual art from DK

As far as I can remember, this is my first DK envelope full of goodies to arrive. The first thing I notice is that I might be able to find some titles for my fused plastic in Diane's mailing... ' match only found in fairytales'.  None of my plastic looks like that, but I could make a bespoke piece to match the name. Great titles to be found in this envelope. The photo of Gail Borden makes me smile.

It easy to see the art through the 'junque' Diane.  I like the spelling of 'junque', it elevates the recycling to something exotic.  I need to think about that for DK Suffolk, branding is everything!

Great to have a fragment of Dustin's envelope.  I need to send him something.  That felt book is pretty fantastic. I love the way Diane has cut the chiclets wrapper, if she did, 'ppermint' is a fabulous word and I let the VISPO wash over me! Appreciate the pastel green alliteration and emergent dyslexic writing.  I recognise it.  My son still writes that way. That pink list is a colour study in itself.

Congratulations to Riley and Brieanna for their  enlightened posters! Definately art!

Credit card slip, possibly an early antique.

About the add and pass, I am all over it!  I've been waiting.

Easter paper dyeing - not quite tie-dye but definately art. Still waiting for DK's paper tie-dye!

And the returned laminated trashpo - I am visually excited.  i love the sounds 'ashioned, ashion s where' I believe it may be an early trash square, or rectangle, the foundations of the trash quilt, for sure!

Thank you Diane.

Vizma finds lost mail and it's for me!

Vizma's envelope is not only attractive, it is also instructive.  Did you know that rats help their blind mates? 

I sent visma a bit of plastic and a stamp motif postcard.  In superb DKULT style, Vizma photocopied and shared these with me, and possibly others. I am honoured! Viz also added a carefully chosen initial to the stamps,  'G' for Guyver, G for 'go' ...

On the inside of the envelope I found the question, 'who's afraid of spiders?'  I put my hand up.  I am very afraid of spiders. I can co-exist with them,  I can ignore the spider in the outdoor shower.  But I am afraid of them! Figgy got a spider bite a few years ago and a welt grew and oozed and eventually we took her to the emergency room and they told it was a brown recluse bite.  She took her antibiotics carefully.  Spiders... EEK.

 I love the lines, 
'is becom-a disaster both 
romanti-artistically.' 
The whole thing reminds me of Madmen.

I am delighted about my trash-politzer!  

Thank you Viz!

Guido Vermeulen's Friour Editions 2013: Moon Faces 4

Delighted to receive Guido's moon faces, images that I have been delighting from as they have appeared at IUOMA. 

Guido's hand-painted envelope: Facing my own tears in the Mirror X24!

 Love the stamp which looks like a Vermeulen collage. And the way the three greens, the butterfly, and the two larger paint daubs  (and the splatters) exist in perfect harmony.  The following are the images that leapt out at me this time.  There are 48 all together!  Thank you Guido.
