Vivien’s Pages in Nina’s book

This is Lindsay here. I offered to post these beautiful landscapes of Vivien’s in Nina’s book for Ronell who is feeling under the weather. Ronell, I hope you are feeling better soon. Hugs and kisses…..

Vivien’s amazing strip landscapes defy gravity. This is the most unusual format I’ve ever seen for landscapes and I’m amazed at just how much information Vivien is able to pack into this format.

I can’t seem to load in the third page where Ronell has overlapped her work around Vivien’s work…drat. Casey, I’ll have to ask your help by email.

Ronell’s Page TWO books

Ronell’s pages in Nina’s book

Sorry for such a long delay in posting these beautiful pages by Ronell. The day before I left for vacation I had not a clue what I’d do in Glen’s book, let alone Nina’s book which popped though my mail slot not a moment too soon. I’m really glad I did not work on Glen’s book before vacation because I had a really great idea for it while we were in California. It’s now complete and heading for the post office tomorrow. I also have an idea for Nina’s book but it will take just a bit longer to do. So, I’m taking a relaxed attitude about being late and know you’ll all understand.

I’ve been thinking lots about you Vivien and sending you cyber hugs. (((((Vivien))))

Vivien’s Cover

This is the cover of Vivien’s book. My addition is the stripe of color on the right hand side. If you look at Vivien’s Blurb book, she has several of these strip paintings on the back cover. I wanted to have a little visual talk back from her inspiration!

My link button is not working today so here is the address of Vivien’s book

Farwell to Vivien’s Book

I’m dragging my feet to the post office today to send Vivien’s book off to Robyn. May it travel swiftly and safely into Robyn’s hands.

You Say Good Bye and I Say Hello

What a pleasure it is to hold Vivien’s textured book and see all the beautiful work and inspiring words. The book is starting to acquire some heft. These babies could get a bit bulky in the next round. (Note to self: get bigger envelopes.)

OK, I’ve figured out how to re load this picture in a larger format. This should be a bit clearer.

Ronell’s Book Arrived Safely

Here is the first 2 1/2 pages of Ronell’s beautiful book. I’m not going to show you the cover so you will have a surprise, but I will tell you that the binding is an inspiring variation of the concertina format. I could almost smell the flowers in Ronell’s garden as I opened the package… but it was probably the wax finish on the cover. She polished the surface with silk. What luxury! Now, what shall I put in her book?

Larger size for Robyn

OK, Robyn here it is, as requested. Can you read the words now? But I’m not going to spoil the surprise inside! Yes, too bad about the flying metal. A small consession to postal issues.

My Book and packing materials

Well, here it is. My book is ready to travel off to Italy. Robyn, I’ve made it nice and innocent, though it kills me not to decorate the package! It could be legal documents. Tomorrow is a holiday so I’ll be sending this out on Tuesday.
