Baren Digest Thursday, 13 June 2002 Volume 19 : Number 1860 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: GraphChem@aol.com Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2002 09:17:56 EDT Subject: [Baren 18314] Re: Bell ringing Dan - Karen teaches printmaking at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln, if memory serves me. She's been very active in Southern Graphics for quite some time. I would suspect that she'd be an excellent juror for the show you're in.

Second of all I would not ask someone to give up a space. Rules are there for all and if I did not have time to open the mail I did not, we were on the road traveling from down south for 12 days. I guess I misunderstood and thought the last day so sign up was June 8th and not prior to, but it would not have mattered as I had not had time to read that mail before that date. Have fun.

I am marking Oct.1 on my calendar so i will not miss a signup again. Thanks caring folks.

By the way, she also just did a grant last year in Japan learning Japanese woodblock printing. Her imagery was the same, but as you know, the technique was different.

She is the jurer for the 29th Bradley National Print and Drawing Exhibition. I was thinking of scanning the prospectus, but where can I post it? So many questions, such little time.

I have changed my mind. After speaking to my husband about the lack of getting into exchange #14 he feels i can handle coordinating a salon d' refuse exchange. It would be the same format as exchange #14, paper size the same and open theme. Since there are 12 on the wait list and possibly others that might be interested i think we can get at least 10 or more and of course first come first served. If interested please email me and I will try to coordinate with the baren to get this handled like the last refuse exchange. I will be gone at least a week, starting June 13, and probably a little more as the husband is coming up to canada as well and we are visiting friends there. We can talk more about dates, the same rules would apply as all other baren exchanges. Soooooo for those who did not get in the official exchange, I will collect the additional exchange and send it out and we can participate.

This is the best list, anything you need to know, someone will know and share their knowledge. I just got my pictures from Scotland, but also got a Scottish version of sinus, sore throat and cough...a lot like the USA version I had a month before I left. As soon as I am 100% will put them on show and tell. I have a couple Wanda and Sharri will pay money for...maybe I will just lose those. Most of the pictures turned out and there are some good ones of the opening of the gospel prints show. What a great time we had. Seeing the pictures makes me want to do it all over again. I especially miss having breakfast waiting when I got up and being served 3 meals a day. A true vacation for the wife and mother. Best to all, Barbara > Sarah > H/C = Hors Commerce (French).

I want to do an underwater print and am looking for the best wood to help it along. The image is easy to carve, but I would like the most help possible from the grain pattern.
