oh the shame! sigh!
since my last post its been a while, but since that time i've done more than quite a bit of artwork, mostly paintings and postcards
to send out. i've sent out at least 40 pieces of art to others, some solicited but more often than not, unsolicited and just for the
joy of knowing that somewhere in the world someone will go to the mail box and be thrilled that there lies within a post box, something that is not a demand for payment due, or bad news, but a colorful work of art.
mail art was sent to japan, serbia, italy, argentina, uruguay, spain, france, indonesia, singapore, sweden and canada, as well as within the continental u.s.
i've also been sharpening up the cutting knives and delving back into carving, lino carving that is, and using up my stash of old pieces to carve before i allow myself to get any new soft lino. my hands, or more accurately, me fingers, get sliced up and nicked, but the joy of seeing a multi-color pass print as a result lends a gentle balm to the skin.
that's all for now, the gigi monster is snoring by my feet while the naughty husky is curled up by the fireplace. its a wonderful sight/night.
