Hello Maria and Fellow Printmakers.

I'm a little unnerved... Exchange 38 still lacks a full compliment of
artists. I never did hear from 4 signups. Of the 4 substitutes, one accepted, one
declined, no response from the others. I've checked and checked the spam folder,
so that's not the problem...

Any sugguestions from the group on how to deal with this? I am new and have
hopes that others will step up and help out with this aspect?

Thanks.

Hi Benny & Baren,
There may be a "protocol" on this from past exchanges, and hopefully one of the oldtimers can chime on this. I am in this exchange and would hope, if we decide to go with 27 instead of 30 participants, that we decide in time for folks to reduce the number of prints to send to you.

A process comment:
I thought (in my naivety) that a "no theme" exchange would be simpler than a themed one, but this is not the case for me. After much struggle with imagery, etc. I find myself back into one of my own perennial themes anyway. Of course, on reflection, this has happened to me before on my art journey :o) but somehow I forgot that!!!

Working away,
Oscar
