kirie, art made from cutting stamps





Yes, another kirie 切り絵 post....We visited the stamp museum again last weekend. Every third Sunday, they have a free session of kiri-e, so we tried it out and my daughter was surprisingly interested. Of course these are all stamps which are heavily over-stocked at the museum, hundreds or thousands of spares of each one.

catching up


Sorry for no posts lately....you've heard THAT before.

Work, work and work. But also some occasional good late-night work on my stamp collection.

One problem with the blog - I am getting a lot of comments, all in Chinese. And they often don't seem to match the content of the blog posts....then I noticed that one of them comes from an address with a link to a rather...unsavory....website in Taiwan.

To any legitimate posters of comments - please give me some time to verify the content before I put the comments on the blog to be seen by all.

Finally, while comments in Chinese are OK, how about some comments in English as well?
