Heebee Post #38 - William L. Philyaw - Shawnee, KS - USA

Upon arrival to the Island, it might be a good idea for first time visitors to drop into the "4-D Tourist Bureau" to acquaint and orient one's self with this brave new world that is both exciting and adventure filled. This cosmopolitan woman, having visited the Bureau, is now better prepared and ready for her 4-D paradise vacation.
William speculates that this card may have been made by the Heebee Tourist Bureau themselves to promote the Island as a vacation destination. The lucky model chosen was a beauty.
William's return to the Island is great news for the locals as he is certainly a favorite here. And, once again, a lovely array of great vintage postage. Thank you very much for your "Tour #2" Art. An entrance to the Philyaw mail art world begins here: http://addressee.blogspot.com/

Heebee Post #37 - Ed Buddz B - W.Chicago, IL - USA

There are many "creatures" that roam the 4th Dimension that are both indescribable and ethereal. Most of these 4-D critters are harmless, playful and fun, especially for the children.
These "creatures" come and go mainly by merely appearing and vanishing, often when you least expect them to and are regarded as "Ghost Pets" when one becomes fond of you and follows you around for a short while.
Ed has managed the "Double Bubble" maneuver quite nicely by sending in 2 postcards simultaneously for full effect. Therefore, a double thank you, thank you for the very cool art is in order.

Heebee Post #36 - Medwolf - Battleford, Saskatchewan - Canada

This colorful Island ritual mask was discovered deep into the jungle during the last expedition along the Trans-4D Frontier. Medwolf was included in that party and now seeks to conduct his own research along the Frontier stretch of irreality known as "The Edge."

Looks like Medwolf possesses the neccessary skills that are required for 4-D Island exploration and survival on the Trans-4D Frontier. The rare qualifiers that do must be of an instinctive and hearty breed. And, besides, David Zack may very well be out there......somewhere........
Thanks very much for your colorful and interesting Mail Art. We are certainly glad to have you return to the Island. Happy hunting my friend. To get an idea of Medwolf's credentials, see this: http://medwolfcamp.piczo.com/

Heebee Post #35 - Wackystuff - Victoria, BC - Canada

When plucked from 4-D tide pools, these Sea Anemone-like creatures become "frozen" in time. When returned to their briney waters, they resume their lives completely unimpaired. Heebee Island is a source of never ending delightful phenomena.
Wackystuff is one of the current masters of the Artistamp and here are a few cool specimens to demonstrate. Thank you very much. Also, his timely "Money" Mail Art call. This is an issue that the 4th Dimension is interested in and will be sending something out soon to show our sense of distress and wonder about what is really going on and what can this mean to us?

Heebee Post #34 - Carla Cryptic - Berkeley, CA - USA

These are lovely ATC's with varying themes that are well crafted carvings and mixed media. Nicely made and have a good physical feel to them as well.

The backsides and titles, respectively, of those nice ATC's.

A great assortment of "Cryptic Post" items with the painting "Portrait of Spikas" featured in the center. It says "First class Mail Art" and I can hardly disagree.

A lot of goodies to view here, including a "Crypytic Post" of Carla herself on the far right. Hi Carla! This colorful array is bright, thoughtful and full of good vibes!Thank you so much! You can find more of this excellent artist by checking here: http://carlacryptic.com/

Heebee Post #33 - REALNEO - Barrie, Ontario - Canada

Heebee Jeebeeland boasts many interesting oddities around it's lively shoreline. One "must do" item on everyone's agenda is walking the "Talking Boardwalk" that extends out from the Confuse-a-Tron lounge area. Inscribed is "Under the Boardwalk you can hear them". This brilliant piece of Mail Art actually has those handsome little devil heads dangling inside their own individual windows. Magnificent! Great job REALNEO! This card is a Heebee classic. We like that "NeoPoste" stamp in the lower corner too. And Canadian potsage is looking good these days as well. Thank you for this super card.

Heebee Post #30 - Servane Morel - Brussels - Belgium

A beautiful array of 4-D Island wildlife by a champion of Mail Art. Servane writes that "These strange Heebee "creatures" need a home". Well, they look pretty content now, frolicking around on the Island. Yes folks, send us your "yearning to be free" creatures of all origins. This is the home most creatures only get to dream of.
So very nice of you to join in on the 4-D Island paradise fun that never stops. It's great to have you here Servane. A big thank you for your intriguing work. This artist has got it goin' on and if you would like to visit more of her mail art worlds, check these out: http://www.mailartpostal.canalblog.com/ and for the high adventurer at heart: http://mailartcorto.blogspot.com/ and http://julesvernenews.blogspot.com/

Heebee Post #28 - Valery Shimanovsky - Nizhnekamsk, Tartarstan - Russia

Hello dear Valery and thank you for such a lovely Holiday greeting! Folks, the postage on this card was canceled on December 6, 2008 - nearly three months ago! Surely our great nations can do a better job! Although, it is hard to complain when I am so delighted to get this from such a well known character and wonderful Mail Artist from so far away.

The Mail Art call shown here is due April 1, 2009. With Olga Sorokina! Nizhnekamsk is home to a whole gang of talented Mail Artists! A Heebee 4-D effort will be in the mail very soon. Thanks very much for thinking of me Valery and I wish you the best for 2009!

A gorgeous ATC depicting the 4-D activity that surrounds and encapsulates the Island. Entitled "Obsessive".

Nice packaging for the ATC's to accompany the postcard.

The sky celebrates with a dislpay of fury as the Island's canopy. Acrylic on canvas.

Another beautiful 4-D Island activity ATC map. Mate to the other and I love them both! This one entitled: "Devour". Thank you so much Xtina. If you would like to see more by her, check here: http://flickr.com/photos/11667842@N05/

Heebee Post #26 - Adamandia Kapsalis - Chicago, IL - USA

There are many wonders here on the Island and beachcombing here can provide fantastical collecting results that both delight and stagger the imagination.
These are fine specimens of a new dimension that knows no bounds in it's diversity and jaw dropping beauty. They do, however, become unstable in the confines of our 3-D reality and must, therefore, remain on the Island. Thank you very much Adamandia for showing these to the world. Visit her sites: http://synaptic-patina.blogspot.com/ and http://a-fishy-requisite.blogspot.com/ .

Heebee Post #25 - Nancy Scali - Claremont, CA - USA

Behold! The awesome geological 4-D birth of Heebee Island. No one can claim certainty of when this might have occurred, but we all know it did! Thank you very much Nancy for your scientifical art.

Heebee Post #24 - Jennifer Zoellner - ST. Petersburg, FL - USA

A giant heroin sun casts it spell down onto a crowded beach. Crowds like this are a thing of the past on Heebee Island.
Thanks Jen for that cool wicked little card. You can find her holding Chromatophore court here :http://www.jenniferzoe.blogspot.com/
