It is not often that I toot my own horn, but here goes: At the Annual
Meeting of the Print Arts Northwest I was dumbfounded, and yes, struck
speechless, (hold all comments & guffaws, please) when the group
honored me with an Honorary Lifetime Membership. I still can't believe
it and have to look at the certificate every now and then to make sure
I'm not dreaming. This is the highest award the organization gives and
I am now is such august company as Gordon Gilkey, Manuel Iszequierdo,
etc. I never dreamed. Anyway, another thing is having work in the
Theater of the Mind, the American Print Allicance's new traveling show.
A work entitled Psyche and Her Sisters, which has a digital
background, then woodblock collage, overprinted again with digital
images. The show will be traveling around until 2006, so I hope you
will all get a chance to see it! Incidentally, the Alliance is looking
for venues, so if you can arrange for it anyplace, please contact
printalliance@mindspring.com, Carol Pulin. It does not have to be a
bona fide gallery space - it can be the art dept. at the school where
you teach/attend, libraries, etc. If you don't want to contact Carol
directly, feel free to contact me and I'll relay the message.

Cheers,
Sharri

Sharri,
You so richly deserve this. Sharri was president for 4 years at a time when things were rocky for the organization. She put in thousands of hours and substancial dollars to keep it going. She is a decicated printmaker, a wonderful teacher, a good friend and a great traveling companion. I was overjoyed to be the person to present her with this award.
Congratulations again Sharri...you got your printmaking gold star!
Best to you,
Barbara M

Gorga,
I think you might need to subscribe to their journal for this....but you would be eligable to submit work if they have a call to artists without paying any money.

I think they need to raise money to maintain the site and to publish their journal (more like a small paperback, about 30 pages) and the $100 a year from the 12 non-profits that belong just won't cover it.

Our own website and all the related stuff is about $800. Before we had the Baren Mall (where we make 5% on orders) to fund this Dave was paying it himself, so we are happy to take that burden from him.

To get the password you need to send the American Print Alliance $30, be sure to mention that you are a member of Baren Forum. If you forget to mention that it will be $35.
Best to you and have a happy turkey day...I don't have to cook so I am happy!

Just a me-too note to say how much I enjoy the new Baren Digest format. (We only returned from Mexico this past Sunday to an overflowing mailbox, and I've now finally caught up on the Digest reading.) The new Digest is so very much easier to read and makes it simple to follow the conversation threads. Thanks so much, David, for going to such effort!
