At any rate, I have been recalcitrant about blogging incoming works for a few weeks, and have been downright stupendously feloniously negligent in making and mailing new art myself. Well, I'm awake again, so let's start a little catch-up...
This lovely 'lope came from Rebecca Guyver. I am a sucker for trees...a proverbial tree hugger...and this mighty specimen printed on a sea of green bolstered by washi-tape wonderment is sweetly serene. And a note promises a book inside!
And while lost in trees I stumbled upon this card thanking me for participating in 'Becca's Spirit of the Forest call. And that spirit is captured in this piece of colorful ink and/or paint on a much folded crinkled bit of clay-coated magazine page paper.
But the meat of the message is to be found folded neatly into a book form, and it is a printed copy of a doodle exchange in which Rebecca has extended original works from Diane Keys...forcibly reminding me that I, myself, have been derelict and owe Diane and others my own over-doodles of their under-doodles. And here is that book of Dandy Doodling:
There are stories in these pages! So, dear blog-reading friend, can you tell whose doodles are whose? I think I can...not certain, of course, but here's a hint. One of these artists is a full-time Kult Kween and the other is an art educator.
Hope everyone who reads this will have as much much fun with this bookie as I have had just imagining all the stories it could be telling. Thanks for sharing, Rebecca, and thanks for instigating, DK.
Always great to see Rebecca's (I guess Becca is starting to stick) "fine art."
ReplyDeleteThe doodles are tremendous - a nice mix.
Wow Dan,what an elaborate blog! Doodling is about the only thing I'm managing time for I think you are absolved from return doodles with this high praise!
ReplyDeletethanks for posting Dan! i'm entranced by the treevelope as well. just got a Willow tree stamp even though I'm not big on stamps. Look for more doodle collabs between Rebecca and me. they are such a nice break from mail art efforting
