watercolor in the mail
Got a small water color in the mail

I just got a painting in the mail. Trying to get images up but I'm away from my gadgets so it's taking awhile.
Here's the info:
Addressed to me, in NH. Return address is ALSO me, in NH. Addresses are handwritten in ballpoint pen, different hands.
The card is about 3x5 and looks like it has a thin red border about a millimeter in from the edge.
One side is reddish earth tones, solid color but brushstrokes visible
The other side is blue and green with a blue eye-like symbol.
Nothing else was in the envelope!
Any ideas?

Interesting Very Happy

Does the eye resemble the one in this thread? :

You might want to try looking at the card under a UV light.
I remember someone recently getting a card with hidden text, but I think he lived in the UK...

UVlight

Thanks, UV light is a great idea! I'll find one.
I tried heating it up over a flame to see if there was heat sensitive writing (lemon juice, for example), but no luck. It's postmarked from Feb 22.
I'll let you know about the UV!

You are not alone

I got one too. I've not participated in an arg for over a year. I just lost my RL job on Monday so I thought I'd reconnect with the community. This thing had my totally befuddled. I'm sort of relieved that someone has had a similar experience.
The envelope was pink and contained nothing save for a small postcardsized water color. My name and address was both the address and return address. Post mark is Feb 22 from Erie PA. I'm from Johnstown PA. I really couldn't discern any shapes. Colors were rose orange and green. Let me know if you discover anything.
