Back to the Studio!!

Rochelle has written a lovely story about a mermaid for my "Imagination" postcard - Thank you so much Rochelle, it's a lovely story which explains why we only 'see' mermaids in the water!
hello fellow collaborators! Well what a week! Wrapt in Rocky was FANTASTIC!!! The Keith Lo Bue workshop was so much fun, Keith was amazing! as were the other artists who attended his workshop, I learnt so much and now just want to try it all out! I caught up with some other postcard collaborators at wrapt in Rocky: Tracey, Jane, Tamara, Amanda and of course Nanette....by the way, WELL DONE NANETTE !!!!!! you did an extraordinary job with organsing the whole show!!!! Next stop Biloela for the Gelatine Printing and Tea Bag Collage...


Thank you to Rochelle for your lovely work on my postcard, I love the mermaid story...also thanks to Lindesay for your next theme: "Surprise", I hope you liked your postcard for round one. How is everyone travelling along at this point? Hopefully you have all posted back the first round of postcards to the originating artists (I'm looking forward to seeing some more posted up on the blog). Have you got your next theme organised? Is anyone having trouble in meeting the timelines? Are the postcards reaching their destinations without any hiccups?


Happy creating till next time we meet on the 'blog'!!

I hope at some point that we may all be able to come together to share our books and postcards with each other!
For those continuing with the postcards, I believe that Olley has already communicated with you about how you will be continuing with this great project.
For everyone, please if you can, complete the postcards you have in your possession, if this is not possible then simply return to the originating artist as is.
For those who have chosen to change to the Altered Book Collaboration I will send out a group email within the next week to outline the details.
Kym, I would like to thankyou for your wonderful efforts of setting up the blog and continuing to maintain it, it has been a valuable opportunity to share thoughts and art with others and to be able to connect with other collaborators across the country and the oceans - THANKS!!!

Once again......THANKS!!! to all of YOU for your enthusiasm, participation and collaboration!!!
