There is no such thing as a failed experiment,
only experiments with unexpected outcomes
-R Buckminsteer Fuller
That quote follows the introduction in Mess
and so we begin......

I wanted to do an anagram of my name Gemma Manzo.
I came up with words like: name, game, gem, age, zag,
mama, man,men, nemo, go amaze, and so on.
Have you ever done anagrams with your name? it's fun.
Glued letters,odd scraps and washed with paint!!!
Granted I don't usually have that much time on my hands but for the
sake of art and making a Mess you know....
