Bill Ritchie asked "I'm curious WHEN were you at Atelier 17? I'm right now
finishing a 4-disc set of DVDs that show my visit to Hayter's in 1983, and
I'm thinking about adding a little about viscosity printing. Another
professor and I talked about the need for a "virtual" Hayter Institute in
homage to Hayter, and I'm doing a woodcut now for the background of a print
I call "Homage to Hayter.""

Thanks for your thoroughly interesting welcome, and your observation, about 
test prints, that "the results of each trial are still images, yet somehow 
alive and loaded with possibilities."  I was at Hayter's on Rue Daguerre in 
1974 and would love to share stories.  I guess we should do it between us, 
not on the Forum. I'm intrigued by the DVDs, which I see on your web site. 
Are they for sale? And I love your work on line!

By the way, when I returned from Paris I studied printmaking at Rhode Island 
School of Design with Larry Heyman, who had been a student of Krishna Reddy. 
Viscosity printing was very big at RISD then!

I see that I will rapidly cease being a lurker here!

Maria,
As ever you amaze me. How could so much energy get into such a small compact
package? Your work and dedication are inspiring! I couldn't find the
horse...maybe your site is just so big we get lost looking at all the
wonderful images..such a sad thing to happen! I love the cactus from #12.
Best to you
Barbara

Hello All,

Use the Advanced Book Exchange and check frequently
on eBay.  I found my copy of 'Storyteller Without
Words' for less than $80.  If you are persistent,
you can find Ward titles (except for the two or three
real limited editions) for reasonable prices.

The "ABE" search is here:
http://dogbert.abebooks.com/abe/BookSearch

At the auction sites, try searching for "Lynn" Ward
instead of "Lynd" Ward and maybe you'll get
lucky.  People sometimes mis-list his name and the
items don't go so expensive.

Hope this helps somebody!  Feel free to contact me
about Ward.  If I don't know the answer, I can
probably find someone who does.

Cheers,
- -Roger in Utah

Printmakers,
Here is a note from Carol Pulin from the American Print Alliance. The
response has not been what all of us have expected. So get yourselve in
gear. They are talking about extending the deadline a month if that would
help anyone get a print in.

>From Carol:
"PLEASE, encourage your members to take part in the Portfolio. If we have
only a few hundred artworks instead of a few thousand, it will confirm
public attitudes towards artists as uncaring, whiners who want the
government to support them while they thumb their noses at the community. We
know that isn't true, but we have to prove it and this is a simple way to
show New Yorkers and the world an overwhelming response."

So lets get those prints to me, one 8x10" vertical print celebrating one
life lost in the Trade Center tragedy. Ship prints to
Barbara Mason
4440 SW 198th
Aloha OR 97007
Info about the portfolio is here http://www.printalliance.org/
It would be nice if we had more that the 9 prints I have in hand to
represent the Baren Forum!
Best to all,
Barbara
