Since we were able to add a few of the Exchange 6 prints, the following people (who don't have work in the Sacred Trees/Endangered Species exchanges) are also hanging in the show and can add this to their resume (the rest of people's work hanging from Exchange #6 are also in the ST/ES exhibit, so will already have added this exhibit to their resume'): Sacred Trees and Endangered Species Exhibit Donald W. Meyer Center at Big Creek Park, Chardon, Ohio July-August, 2002 David Bull Patsy Giclas Michelle Morrell Andrea Rich J D Roehrig Brad Schwartz Greg Valentine Peter Walls From those hanging from the Endangered Salon, these people may not know they have a piece in the show.

But I have found nothing else in the same line. In particular, I have not found a description of how it was done. Does anyone have any information? The one thing I did find was a reference to a technique promoted by Polaroid, which basically amounts to just taking a picture on their film and then coloring in details ... no printmaking that I can see. What is the relationship to this and the original watergraph technique, if any? Why is hand coloring a Polaroid picture called a "watergraph"? Cheers ......

If you are on the fence, we would also like to hear from you, please. >> OK, some things I'd love to see/do: 1. different ways people do things all woodprintmakers have to do, such as registration - an interest group meeting or demo at which several people show their different solutions to this. 2. tool sharpening demos/hands-on help to get sharpening and honing down. 3. I only do hanga and love to see creative explorations of the tools and process, such as unexpected ways of treating the surface of the block or unusual ways of preparing ink for various effects. 4. A chance to show, look at, and talk about work by people who won't be there but whose work is admired, i.e., introducing each other to work that interests us. 5. Maybe everyone who comes can have an hour (or whatever will work) to show an tell - talk about what we do well and where we want help. That could produce a very interesting program, without taking much preplanning. The biggest challenge for me, having been an etcher for decades, and one who still paints, is how to think in the language of woodblock imagery. Of course the biggest challenge is also the most satisfying struggle too. I'm looking forward to hanging out with everyone while my husband goes to baseball games, which is why he wants to come with me.
