Eco-print with mixed media.

From Richard Baudet, Marseille, France.
Decorated envelope: calligraphy, vintage papers--the epitaphs are quite old as a f is used instead of s.
The lovely 'annee du cheval' stamp continues the theme of Richard's calligraphy.
The horse is painted in ink-brush style by the  Chinese artist, Li Zhongyao, who lives in France.

A nod to Magritte in orange and black (# 1/20)--the reverse has a print of an orange slice in white
 on orange background. CR added 'un bord bleu' to enhance contrast on this blog.
Text on Reverse includes--Orange county,
orange trees (Los Angeles was once covered in orange groves),
 and California poppy.
