Dave, thanks for all the new entries on the Encyclopedia updates.
I enjoyed Matt's sales and work tent.  I'm always impressed with what
people come up with for their display areas at craft shows.  You have to
be a nomad at heart for this.

Jeanne, the white line woodcut process reminds me a little of how I do
my oil based color prints.  I use separate blocks for colors, but I keep my
paper attached to the board and just keep sliding in the new color block
when I'm ready for it.  So I do a whole print at once.  This seems to be the
only way I can register correctly.  It works like a charm, too.  I tape mine
either with paper surgical tape or removable scotch type tape.  
It just takes a long time to do each print.  You only find yourself
doing a 
very few at a time.

Yesterday at the Wetlands, right after I saw your red dragonfly print, Dave,
Shane and I saw a red dragonfly--one of the last of the season.  I said hello
to him and scared him.  I will yet learn to keep my mouth shut in
nature.  I
am so exuberant and want so to communicate, but the human voice isn't the
way.  And his wings by the way certainly shown like the mica dust.  

Also enjoyed your conversation with the great nephew of Frank Morely-
Fletcher.

Subject: [Baren 6444] Site Update  

Long last I have been able to up date my site to include images of the Art
Gallery of Greater Victoria exhibition.

I have been waiting to get a wide angle lens for my digital camera which
never did arrive.  I hired a person to take some shots.
He done good.

You can go to my site at.
