Dear All,

Sorry, but I may have "misread" the way Maria described her keyblock and 
registration method.

Just be careful cutting blocks that the key block and the additional 
colour blocks all "face" the same direction ... was what I was "trying" 
to say! 

Jan

Dear Carol in Sacamento,

>And speaking of sheep/goat cards, my stable now holds magnificent specimens
>from Jan Telfer (Jan, did you use wood or linoleum?)

This is a woodblock. Most of these prints you can still see the grain of 
the wood.

You could use it as a Puzzle Print - "Where does this little sucker fit 
in the picture"-type print!!!

 The commercially printed card is the design of the original woodblock 
(A4 Size) and to print the postcards I used the original block, rolled 
with ink and put down a piece of clear acetate (left over from the 
photocopier) with a square cut out where I wanted to put my printing 
paper and then used the baren to transfer the sheep head to the postcard.

I had postcards made of my exhibition pieces I had in Oyama Japan and 
sold the postcard packs as the average Japanese person I encountered was 
buying sets of cards rather than the original print, I think probably 
because their houses do not have the wall space availability of ours or 
"you know what?"!!Commercialism.  Mine at the time certainly weren't 
expensive and I Exchanged 18 originals of one of the prints I had there ( 
a black edition of my Australian animals woodblock that has since been 
featured in Somerset Studio - Gallery Vol 11 P. 46-48 December 2001)  for 
one woodblock print of each of Hiroshi's students who came to the 
exhibition.  Several of them have since been to Australia and we have 
exchanged more original prints, so it has definitely snowballed.  I have 
quite a magnificent collection now, but certainly even I haven't the wall 
space to hang them all.

Thank you for asking Carol,

Jan
