Heebee Post #315 - R.F. Cote - Quebec, QC - Canada

4th Dimension microscopic investigation by Heebee Scientists reveal an incredible unseen world that most visitors here will never see. The very puzzling evidence found here will take years of study to determine what the 4th Dimension is actually composed of.
It is very nice to find Reg back on Heebee sand and having a grand time of it. Can't help but notice that interesting Artistamp depicting a national deficit problem. Canadian budget deficit. A drop in the bucket compared to our massive problems! Ugh! I sure like the beautiful Canadian postage here. Nice card Reg, thank you very much. You can view this Artist's Mail Art site here: R.F. Cote Mail Art. Also, he runs the very cool Mail Art zine Circulaire 132. Check it out.

Heebee Post #314 - Katerina Nikoltsou - Thessaloniki - Greece

Happy Easter everybody! Wait a minute. Hold on. Those aren't Easter Bunnies, they are - ugh - Jackalopes! Sound the alarm! Notify Scotland Yard! What ghastly form of Easter entertainment is this? They are on the outskirts of the Heebee Resort and are intent on marching in - who knows what malicious behavior they have in mind!
Katerina gently explains that these Jackalopes are of the friendly sort. We shall have to take her word on that. I guess they can stay for the Holiday, but in the morning they must be on their way! Just look at their sneaky looking little faces. I've got a feeling about these little fellows. Just ask D.C. Spaulding - Ah well, we shall see.And now what is this creeping in after dark? Cowalopes? A new merry denizen for the 4th Dimension? At least he has a friendly smiling appearance. Alright, come on in. Happy Easter!
Katerina is back on the Island with this double shot of Easter fun! Islanders are applauding her healthy sense of humor as they settle down to a delicious Easter dinner. All is quiet on the the 4th Dimension front today - may your Easter be blessed as well. Thank you very much katerina, nice to have you here once again my friend. I love these Mail Art characters and cards!

Heebee Post #313 - Maria Darmeli Araujo - Porto Alegre / RS - Brazil

This brilliant vision of Trans-Dimensional travel is fantastic! The separation barrier that divides the adjacent universe is actually quite delicate. 4-D destinations are accomplished by "slipping through" this "soft" division. Here we see the cosmic film yielding an opening.

I don't usually post Add & Pass Art when it first begins it's journey, but I love Carmen Miranda! I'll be adding on to it and sending it on. This should be a good one.
Welcome to Heebee Island Maria. Your submission to the 4th Dimension Territories really is incredible - terrific digital work. Thank you very much. Be seeing you in the mail my friend.

Heebee Post #312 - Kiki Desvaux - Le Vigen - France

" Among the interesting methods of getting around the Island is this adventurous looking "Le Velorobot". Complete with the "Embrayage Automatique" (Automatic Clutch). Try riding one of these babies around the 4th Dimension for a while. That's entertainment! This postcard is large and made quite nicely.
Very Happy to find Kiki roaming around the Heebee Jungle paths on her wonderful Velorobot. I have been a fan of this prolific Mail Artist for some time now. She mentions Servane Morel (Belgium) in her note - I find it very amusing to check out the lively exchanges between these two talented ladies and some of their friends, on their Mail Art sites. Mail Art at it's best! See for yourself: Kiki's Mail Art and Servane's Mail Art. Thank you very much Kiki - see you in the Mail soon!

Heebee Post #311 - Coralette Damme (The Crafty Hag) - St. Petersburg, Florida - USA

Bird observation in the Heebee Interior can sometimes be a bit more than the sportsman bargained for. Take this little fellow for instance. The "Fire Bird" can drop out of the sky at a terrific velocity in it's effort to protect it's young. If you ever happen upon a "Fire Bird" nest with chicks - quickly move away from the vicinity. This little Avian can be an aerodynamic compact rocket of doom if you are not careful.
Coralette returns to the Island with her little freaky feathered friend to have a little fun in the sun. Nice to see you here again your Craftiness! This is a very cool card, cut in an interesting birdie shape that the Post Office decided to put it inside a postal safety envelope. Thank you very much - it is superb! Find out what else she is up to here: Dread Lippencott's Menagerie.

Heebee Post #310 - CZ Lovecraft - San Jose, California - USA

Here, we get a glimpse of Heebee cultural antics, including the infamous cut-off finger surprise (top left). Heh. That's not a trick! A sneaky April Fools prank! Huh? A nice collection of 4-D style hilarity.
Great to see Mr. Lovecraft back on the Island. This jolly decorated envelope contained a few other items not shown - like a 3 card ATC Jam set, that I will add to and send off. Thank you very much C.Z., love that goofy trick!

Heebee Post #309 - Art Tower (Gunter Schwind) - Aschaffenburg - Germany

Ha! Cousin Arty is back and is in fine form with this hilarious Heebee Polka Party! A real Dandy indeed! This super postcard commemorates the "Cousinage 2009" when the two Towers did meet and celebrated accordingly (here, in the 4th Dimension). Island life at it's finest! ..............I do hope however, that he doesn't start yodeling again!
Gunter is quite familiar with the goings on in the 4th Dimension and he is an Island celebrity. He really has actually been here. Hopefully, he shall return and we shall continue our 4-D Art stunts. Thank you very much Cousin Arty! You can find Gunter's MA site here: Art Tower Mail Art. See you in the Mail Cousin!

Heebee Post #308 - Nancy Scali - Claremont, California - USA

On rare occasions, some lucky folks can unintentionally wind up in the 4th Dimension quite by accident - like these two regaining consciousness in the surf of a Heebee beach. Imagine their surprise as they walk ashore into 4-D Paradise. Their fantasy dreams suddenly turned into a reality! Divine! This postcard has very sparkly adornments that couldn't be shown properly here via the scanner. It really is rather stunning. Thank you very much my dear Nancy.

Heebee Post #307 - Brent Leopold - Camp Hill, Pennsylvania - USA

Expeditions conducted near or along the "Edge" of the vast Trans-4D Frontier, have occasionally resulted in the unfortunate calamity of a purgatorial languishing period between Dimensions. Eventually, our trapped friends will drift back into one of the Dimensional realities with the Quasi -Atmospheric Tides. But which one and when? 4-D exploration can be a risky business! Brent sent this half finished for collaboration and so I completed it. Thanks Brent, that was fun
Also included were these two ATC"s. They are almost like blue and gold Petroglyphs. Nice. You can find out a lot more of this interesting Artist here: Brent Leopold's Art. Thank you very much Brent - Something shall be on it's way to you soon dear friend.

Heebee Post #306 - Dosankodebbie (Deborah Davidson) - Toyohira-ku, Sapporo - Japan

Another Etegami beauty shows up on the Island - This time it is "The Tale of the Screaming Banana". The 4th Dimension loves these great painted cards and the noble Art of Debbie's Etegami. You can find more of her clever traditional twist here: Dosankodbbie's Etegami Notebook.
Nice to find Debbie having fun in the 4th Dimension again. I am a big fan of her work. She has a Mail Call for Etegami Recipe cards and Mail Art here: Dosankodebbie's Mail Art Gallery. Above is a fine example of an Etegami Recipe card - with a practical and enjoyable way to use up very ripe bananas that might otherwise hit the trash bin. Just follow that recipe. Thank you very much - Love it!

Heebee Post #305 - Marianne Laimer - Gotland - Sweden

I chuckled loudly when I pulled this out of the post box this morning. I am finding this to be funny on a few different levels and I am loving it! Why, this is something I very well may have said myself - more than once. Ha ha! Marianne created quite a stir when she arrived on the Island with this fantastic postcard. I love alternate sanity jokes - Heck, that's what the 4th Dimension is all about! Great job! Nice Swedish Black Cat postage too. Check her Mail Art site: Den skulptura boken. Sure like your sense of humor Marianne. Something is already in the mail to you.

Heebee Post #304 - Maria Da Gloria Jesus De Oliveira - Porto Alegre-RS - Brazil

Maria has created a a picture journal of her amazing vacation here in the 4th Dimension. These cherished memories will now remain with her forever. Many visitors here are 4-D scrap booking these days as a way to keep those memories vivid and alive!
That rubber stamping in the upper left is great! Is that really you Maria? Love it! Maria's first trip to the Heebee Territories with this pictorial tale of wild abandon and fun in the 4th Dimension is pretty descriptive. Thank you very much my friend and welcome to the Island.

Heebee Post #303 - Maggie (Stinkfoot) Cope - Point Washington, Wisconsin - USA

Wow! What a terrifically bizarre vision of a Heebee Hobo's life in the 4th Dimension. Illuminated by a bonfire on a remote part of the Island, you can see that somebody has really let them self go. Clippers please!
Maggie arrives on the Island and immediately inquires "Like my stinky feet"? Ugh! There are a lot of unique spirits here in the 4th Dimension, but Maggie is definitely part of a new breed. Thanks little Maggie Stinkfoot - This is hilarious and strange - always a nice combo!

Heebee Post #302 - Brandon Cope - Point Washington, Wisconsin - USA

Many business men have been disappearing during the afternoons and returning with a new spring in their step. Spending even a few hours in the 4th Dimension proves to be a great stress reliever and physiologically satisfying. Just don't let the Boss find out about it! And, what happens in the 4th stays in the 4th!
Brandon enters the 4th Dimension with this fine "Business Man's Special" Heebee postcard. Love that tip of the hat to the other fellow! Great card Brandon, thanks very much and welcome to to Heebee Jeebeeland.

Heebee Post #301 - Ria Cabral - Holloman AFB - New Mexico - USA

Some interesting characters have been seen cavorting about the Island lately. Yes, it's true. You really can be who you want to be in the 4th Dimension.
Ria, arrives in the 4th with this dazzling Heebee Hero postcard. Love it! Yes, I am happy to swap some Mail Art with ya - in fact, something should be in your mail box in the next day or so! You can find Ria having fun with Mail here: The little Red Mail Box. Thank you very much my friend.
