Happy Holidays Folks

Happy holidays everyone! Secial good wishes for 2010 and I hope its a wonderful year for us all! Cheers!

Yellbroad's Moly

Not sure what I was thinking here...
This one was inspired by Rick Tulka whom I had the pleasure of meeting while I was in Paris recently. Check out his art gallery sketches.
And lastly...
So, now it is ready to send to Szaza in Istanbul. I posted a comment in the previous post suggesting I don't send it to her as my last one hasn't arrived and she has had trouble with mail from Australia on a previous occasion. Maybe I could send it to someone who lives in a country where the post is reliable to Turkey? Any suggestions as to what to do? I can't afford the $70 for insured and tracked shipping.

Breaking the Silence

I don't know what it was, probably my month in Paris, but I just didn't realise that the missing book was posted by me. ME! I tell you this makes it far worse a feeling, though probably not as bad as the owners of the missing books. I'm off to the post office to follow up today.

I'm opening this up to suggestions. What if anything needs to be done?

This is a slow group (me included sorry). It's a big group, although it has shrunk quite a lot. I find it's confusing because of the shrinking. Here is my dreaded chart again. Can you please comment here to say whose book(s) you have so I can put a black "x" in the spot. This will help us to keep track of where our books are. THANK YOU!
Post edited 6 Dec to show Lisa has received Pamela's moly.

Samantha's Circus

Really dragging my feet on this one, seems like the moleskine world is in a lethargic slump.  And Im part of the problem. 

 But no more!  

Samantha's moleskine seems to be one of the most cohesive Ive ever had my hands on.  It feels like a story is underneath it all, a narrative pushing along throughout.  At first I wanted to have the three main characters from Fellini's La Strada as my entries, but that just didnt come together.  And instead, we went to the circus on the edge of the mind.  I hope it works, I think it both hit and it missed.

received

Received today Lisa's moly via Lynne. Thanks Lynne for sending it on to me. I hope to work in this book over the weekend. yah it has been a while since I did any pages, so am looking forward to it and this book is very inspiring.

yellbroad's moly finally!!!!

SORRY it has taken me soooo long to get this book finished. :S

hopefully will get it out in the post to Jan tomorrow.

Lynne's Moly - Jan's Entries

I've finally caught up! Lynne sorry to keep your book for so long! I also had a go at scanning Pamela's 'Dexta' again. It IS very hard to scan but it IS such a wonderful pink that I just had to have a go at it.
I'll be posting it off to Szaza on Monday!

Lisa's moly

Here are my totem animals :-)

Who shall I post it to next? backwards to creative girl or cathie?

Post!

Josh, thanks for the fantastic envelope art .....Lisas book has arrived safely :-)

The who what where and when of books

I know a lot of you didn't like my chart but here I go again with it because it helps me to understand and some others in the group did like it also.

To see who has your book:
Look along the top (blue & white) list of names and find yours. Slide down that column. X means they have had it and finished it. X means they have it, but it's not yet finished.
To see what books you have done:
Look down the side (yellow & white) list of names and find yours. Slide across that column. X means you have had it and finished it. X means you have it, but it's not yet finished.

To update this chart:
Let me know what books you have (X) that I have missed.
Let me know if I've missed adding ones you've done (X).

I know I've missed some and probably got some wrong too. It's a work in progress ;]

books

it has been such a long time since I have had a book, or seen any action in my own book, I have asked often what is happening and who has what.....please please can we have a full update on where the books are, this silence is very disheartening

So long

Hello dear artists

I'm sorry to announce I won't continue on the exchange.

I'll be moving from my country so is going to be difficult for some time.

I hope everybody is having nice days and nights and continue with this marvelous project.

Hugs and kisses

Ahoy there! It's Emma's Moly!

I've finally been able to put my entries in Emma's Moly.



Hope you like them Emma!

Here and Now

My entries into Lisa's moleskine.  I hit a real wall on this book, drawers's block, if you will.  But its ready to go and we're onward and upward.

please!

please can we have an update on the molys....who has which moly ...its so very quiet,  I know that summer is here and that is usually a quiet time in the exchanges, but there is a really deep silence here......

The Dangers of Crushes

My entry in Pam's book is now complete!
I had a lot of fun with this one.

Clowns for Samantha's Circus

I am leaving for the summer this Sunday June 21. I finished my entry for Samantha Zaza and will send the book to Josh tomorrow.

Have nice summer!

!!!

itsall so quiet

Samantha's Circus

Whew... a long time coming.... I'll be mailing Samantha's book tomorrow!! Yea!!

Tau

News, I got it.

When I got home yesterday I found that Tau had returned both my and Katya's moleskines, along with a note.  Tau writes:

Really sorry about holding up the group.  We've had some health issues in the family and I just havent been online since then.

So, Its unfortunate about the health troubles and that she had to bow out; Fortunate that both moleskines are back, ready to recirculate, thank you Tau.

She had laid out 3 entries in my book, including a ballerina, a ninja and

the other 2 are in pencil and I encourage anyone who cares to to work on them as you see fit, and if not, I'll work on top of her framework at the end, when the book makes its way back to me.

So!  Who wants one?  

Cre8tive Girl's Tarot Moleskine

He Pulls The Chariot alone















The World Turns Thanks to her.















The Fool rings his bell.
So these are my addition to Yvonne's Moleskine. As I have done a little work with the Tarot before, it was hard to shake it not being mildly about "The Magic Flute" as you can see with Le Mat. I hope you like them. I was influenced, as well by Samantha's banners.

Three pages for Lisa

Hello everybody,

I am so sorry I was mute for a long time. My computer was broken. This week I fixed it and I scanned Lisa’s Moleskine that I had for long time. I am ready to send it.

The princess, the prince and the warrior

Here are my entries for Pam's book. I'm sorry it took me too long on those.

I hope you like them :)

Cre8tive Girl's moly

This is my view of Tarot theme. It was quite difficult because I don't know enough about it but I hope you like them.
The book is on its way to Benconsevato :)

Jan's Moleskine

Here are my entries in Jan's Moly– I had a lot of fun with this one. The story is naturally inspired by my new home in Istanbul, and drawn with Winsor & Newton India ink and gold ink with a dip pen and brush. I wish I had better handwriting, I tried to make it look good but it's a little wonky.

I hope you like it Jan!
