Collage on postcard, 2007. Titles of works as they appear.
It had to be said, it reminded them of home. (cover)
Do you think anyone will notice?
So happy to have found you.
We needed nothing else.
All was no longer in fog.
Who knew he was actually a muskrat?
Please, take me with you... I don't come empty handed.
Treasure before me.
The lock was broken but the door still worked.
He'd taken a wrong turn somewhere along the line.
The yellow mud turtle arrived on the Wednesday.
We just can't understand why the land here is going so cheap.
We can't understand why the land is going so cheap here either.
Milano two step.
Not my usual locale.
She pays me no attention, none whatsoever.
I return with important trinkets, one for each of you.
A fine balancing act went unnoticed at the New York Zoological Gardens.
Jumping not just puddles but whole rivers too.
A leopard seal was not normally encounted on such works but then nothing felt normal about today.
No cause for alarm, I'm just passing through.
This is not the home of the lace maker.
Not nearly as terrifying upon closer inspection.
The moon above, and all was well.
