Dimitris,

Graphic Chemical used to have a library you could rent movies/tapes from 
for classroom purposes. Maybe Dean could answer this better than I.

Wanda, old Bud, you are so right on about the McClain's catalog. It was 
such fun to see names you recognize from Baren - and from  the Northwest 
Print Council, too - like James Todd.  He is such a master at woodcut 
and wood engravings - work to blow you clean off the planet!  You can go 
on-line to their website and see all the prints from the catalog in 
color - I'm going there now :-)

But, before I go, it was fun to see John Amoss  is a MFA student and 
Associate Editor of the Southern Graphic Council newsletter.  Way to go, 
John.  When I went back to school later in life it was such a rewarding 
experience and I got so much more out of it than in the undergrad days 
when social life was all important!  Just a matter of focus, I guess - 
but, this experience will be one of the high lights of your life. Highly 
recommended for all!

Sharri

Subject: [Baren 19652] wood question 

For moku hanga, would it be a bad idea to carve, say, a keyblock in 
cherry, and color blocks in basswood?  Would this make for an uneven 
shrinkage problem, hence messing up registration?  I do this all the 
time with oil based inks and it works fine.

Thank you Daniel Dew for an outstanding print.  Sure was worth being patient 
so this will be included in our 14a exchange. My postal lady declared it 
stunning and I agree!

I am not in a panic to recieve your prints:
Frank Trueba
Eli Griggs
Horacio Soares Neto

Our fall is so lovely here that I am in no rush to sort prints and post 
them. So enjoy your printing and get them to me as soon as you can.

Hi Folks, 
Just waiting for the resumes from the following  for the NYC Pub Library 
Print Collection :

Sharen Linders
Bobbi Mandel
Frank Trueba.
Please get in touch .As soon as I get all the resumes I will hand deliver 
them.

I saw the actual Large Exchange Prints when I was visiting with Rudolf last 
week in North Carolina.  The Portfolio is AMAZING!!!  My husband and I were 
impressed (again) with the work of the Baren members. 

We had a wonderful time with Rudolf and Patricia . I learned  about Rudolf's 
special organizaton and setup for carving and printing in a large format. We 
had exchanges of information and long art chats, 
It is quite an unusual  experience to meet after e-mailing for a couple of 
years. What a group!

SARAH:

I'm interested in knowing more about solar plate printmaking, although I'm
some far away from New York.
Does anybody knows a web page about "Homemade Solar plate printing". I can
find pages about the companies that sell those products, but I would prefer
to experiment a little.
