Thank you all for the nice comments, it means a lot from folks who know what
goes into moku hanga! "Discovery and excitement" would be about right, Jean,
I just keep finding more wonderful things I can do with woodcut and with art
in general.

Glad to hear Gayle's youngest shares my love for spiders on my birthday
cake!

April, I loved seeing your show and the fun pictures too.  Thank you.  But 
for me one very wonderful phrase about your work stands out, "my art 
concerns the similarities in shaper and pattern between plant, animal and 
landscape."  You are innovative, creative
and working toward a big contribution to the art world and it is wonderful 
to see it happening, wish I could attend the show in person.

Subject: [Baren 17902] Re: drawing transfer - two step tracing 04/19/2002 12:47:24 PM 

I have the luxury of a nearby  Kinko's for using Copying equipment. Most of
the copiers at Kinko's are capable not only
of "reversing" the original image but also of creating a "negative" B&W
effect on your original.  In this computer age we are in, others may choose
to scan their drawing directly into their PC, reverse the image and/or add
other special effects as needed. There are many other methods of
tranferring the drawing to the block.

One which I have never used before (till this past wekend) and yet seems so
basic and simple is that of using carbon paper to do a "two-step tracing"
process also known as double-tracing. If you are acquainted with this, you
need to read no further.

It calls for a sheet of carbon paper to fit your drawing. In the first step
we place the carbon face up underneath the drawing to create a reverse
drawing on the backside of the original as we trace over the original.

In the next step we place the carbon face down on the actual block and we
turn the original drawing around so we can trace using our "new" reversed
drawing and thus create a proper transfer to the block.

That's it. Perhaps a well-known trick around printmakers circles, but new
to me. My thanks to Utemaro Azechi for the ongoing
enlightenment.

Idon't whther you mean some page I've mentioned or my own page

Not found sounds like my email that was some days out of order
I hope I will have a www-page  after some time I don't have it now

By the way I tried to explore how to add pictures to baren-page
with ftp but it did'nt work at all And  IExlorer stopped to work 
after that it's just a smoking wreck now
So is there any idiot-proof instructions for that
Or is it possible to send pictures with e-mail to be added

(an it-professional also tried to help me but the task was too 
difficult for him too)

Thanks for interest

Minna Sora
