Rave Reviews
"Russell McDougal's magical "Isle of View Insight Cards" are a
refreshing source of illumination for today's troubled times. These
cards, the result of a lifetime of art, meditation and hard work, are
the mystical antidote to those "end time blues". Yes, magic is still
alive, and picking one of Russ's cards any time during your day is a
sure way of reminding yourself of this fact ... Oh yes, "Magic," in Russ
McDougal's syntax is "Mind's Awareness Generates Infinite Creation."
That's Russ himself! "
"Congratulations on getting your cards to this magical state of
manifestation. Am really enjoying them on a daily basis ... they set a
good tone and pack a delightful visionary punch."

"Russell McDougal has hit upon an original and eye catching idea with
his acronym cards. His creative collages and word choices would make a
great counter item for us. They arouse curiousity with their intriguing
designs and better still they challenge the reader to come up with their
own acronyms. I believe that these cards would be a tremendous
point-of-sale item in any bookstore, because book customers love words
and language."
