Some photographs from Glorie Iaccarino. I think Glorie is involved with Papergirl Quad Cities on the Iowa-Illinois border… can’t find an email or personal website for her anywhere though. If you are Glorie, thank you for the photographs & sorry for not getting in touch directly.

MYSTERIOUS NAMELESS SUBMISSION! This was unfortunately mauled in the post, so apologies for the crumpling. Gonna flatten it as best I can.

It’s an A4 sized drawing, and there’s no signature that I can see or contact details. If this is yours & you’d like to put your name to it, message me! If you’d rather stay anonymous that’s ok (but I would love to know…).

The postmark is hard to read but (I think) it says Inis Díomáin which I think is a place in Co. Clare near Lahinch? Ennistymon?

Some submissions from Stephanie Golden, who lives in Dublin.

Wasn’t sure what exactly these were so I asked her: they’re drawings, mostly stills from animations, that have been digitally altered & printed on photo paper.

Here’s her website

Yeh I’ve been very absent from promoting & generally engaging with Papergirl recently, so I’d like to apologise for that. I was sick, and before I got sick (probably the reason I got sick) I was too busy with Day Job to do anything else.

Apologies especially to the people who sent me submissions over the last while! I got them, thank you, if I haven’t been in contact yet I will email you today. I took photos of lots of submissions this morning & will post them here soon.

Another thing is, I’m going to extend the submissions deadline. It was the 31st of May but I was so absent for the last month that makes no sense anymore. New deadline is… July 14th. How bout that, an extra 6 weeks. There’ll be a poster for that up soon.

4 photographs and 2 drawings from Julianne Popa. She is from Romania but lives in Germany, and her flickr is really worth a look!

fadical:

when an artist wants to show you their art

or a writer wants you to read what they’ve written

it’s quite often an expression of trust

because a poem or a story or a painting are often things that come from the heart

little pieces of the artists themselves

and if they’re willing to share it with you

you should appreciate it

Hi! Where else in the world is Papergirl going to be this year?

Sun, 24 Mar 2013 17:23:40 +0000

Not terribly sure, but take a look at papergirl-world.blogspot.com

hi there. the post with our stuff looks nice :). I want to tell you so you can change it, that 2 of the drawings (the b/w one with the man tiying up the womans corset) and the one with the jew, are actually by my bf, Charly Meneses Amezcua. I put that on the back of them. best, julianne. xx

Sun, 24 Mar 2013 17:22:16 +0000

Hi Julianne,

thanks for telling me, I stupidly didn’t even look at the back! I’ll take some better photographs next week and change the post, no worries.

5 submissions from Exchange! Only one of them had a name on it, the drawing on the top by (I think) James McHugh & Guy Queen. If any of them belong to you, tell me: papergirldublin at gmail dot com

Picked up 4 submissions today in Exchange, they’re all from people who take part in the Drawing Club that happens there every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 4pm.

The bottom one in the first picture is from Sarah, the bottom one in the second picture is signed ‘Arlo’… and the other two are anonymous. I think…

I take photos and this thing that you are doing seems interesting and fun. But is there like a theme you are looking for in the submissions?

Thu, 28 Feb 2013 00:49:46 +0000

Hello Anonymous,

no there is no theme, just send whatever you would like people to see.

The main thing to consider is that it needs to be something we can roll up after the exhibition, so we can distribute it.
