Elflog & more

I didn't have my camera with me when I spotted this butterfly on my neighbors flower, but I did have my 'phone...didn't it take an excellent photo? I was so happily surprised. The flowers framed in the fence are in another neighbors yard. She grows beautiful roses, too. On Friday morning, the shelf was empty except for the smily face sticker and the Make Art mini-poster. A FOUND Cat flyer was on the pole. A quiet day at the shelf. I decided to show you the view from the west, including the bus stop sign so you could get a better idea of the relationship. Later in the day, on my second dog walk, I put some thing on the shelf and took down the FOUND flyer since the cat is now back with it's family. Oh, another thing, on Sep. 27, I found something I'd left on the shelf, a paper item dated Sep. 17, further up the block on the sidewalk. It was pretty shabby looking, like it'd been walked on for the 10 days it was lying there. Curious!

Funny. Even though you explained the other day about the coffee cup ledge, I had it firmly in my brain that the shelf was only about 2 feet off the ground. So, seeing its actual height here is surprising. Funny how our brains latch onto things that are incorrect, even when we know they are so.

I'm so happy I decided to do "context." Thanks for commenting on this.

How did I get into this?

I was asked when I started doing Mailart. Good question. Like many artists, I was making and mailing art without even knowing it had a name ...
