Ria Vanden Eynde

"Diagnosis"

"Doctors"

These excellent paintings were sent by Ria from Belgium.

I think they speak so much for themselves, no more words needed.

On her weblog Painting2Cancers you can find more work which Ria has been painting after two cancers, thyroid and breast (which have been diagnosed 5 resp. 4.5 years ago). Be sure to take a look!

The Dutch weblog is Beelden van 2 kankers.

I'd like to ask your attention for her very interesting mail art call about "Women artists changing bodies": The Body - Nothing Else.

Thanks a lot, hartelijk dank, Ria, voor deze treffende werken!

Lidia

Een echte Lidia!

"And? What do you think it is?"

This question, asked by the doctor him/herself, will be recognizable for at least Dutch patients.
Thank you, Lidia, hartelijk dank, for this tremendous collage!

More works made and/or spotted by Lidia you can find here.

Wilma Duguay

"I took a solemn oath

to heal all creatures

in the sea."

More Sea you can see in The Sea Exhibition.

Thank you, Wilma, also thanks for your other beautiful mail art!

José Manuel Figueiredo

José Manuel Figueiredo sent this mail art work from Portugal.

It might be hard to run fast, while hurrying to an emergency case, with footwear like these.Though no doubt these doctors succeed in reassuring their patients. Note the friendly and caring smile of the lady on the right, and the healthy (green) environment.

Muito obrigado, José!
