Just Like That

It's been a week. I kept telling myself I needed to write a blog post, but it just didn't get done on any of these days. But I'm here now - better late than never!

I've sent some mail. For example:

In this case, the words were lines cobbled together from a children's book and they suggested the imagery. I could say more about the piece, but I'm not sure I need to.

I also sent mail to Jon Foster. I've decided to try to do some sort of art related to the books that I'm reading, and he got the first one I've done.

I'm trying to read the books from the 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die list (2006 edition), and now I've added the challenge of creating art about them on top of it (as if reviewing them isn't enough!). I really loved this book, and if you're interested in reading my thoughts on it, you can find them on LibraryThing.

I received a Christmas card from Carolyn Curtis, aka Wenchkin, which brought a smile to my face.

I mean come on, how could that not put a smile on your face?! Thank you, Carolyn!

More to come, hopefully tomorrow.
