Jeanne, big congrats on your shows! wish I was "in the neighborhood" and
could see them!

Harry, enjoyed looking at your prints, and welcome to Baren - I'm sure you'll
find a wealth of information there.

Congragulations on your shows Jeanne. Bouts of insanity go with being an
artist.

Send Message: To this poster

I was working on a print last weekend and thought it
would look perfect on one of my favorite papers:
Inomachi. A soft, dense, white paper with a lot of
texture to it. The printing I am doing right now is
very tactile and I really wanted that texture.

Much to my distress, it turns out not to be available
in the US anymore! The distributer has discontinued
stocking it and McClains and Daniel Smith have both
dropped it from thier lineup. McClains said that they
could not afford the 1000 sheet minimum needed to have
it brought in.

So! Is this an item we could access through our Mall
connections in Japan? Seems like the perfect sort of
thing for the Mall to carry, a terrific paper not
accessible through normal channels.

Bette,

Thanks for the suggestions on the 14" wide cherry and I am not opposed to
bringing it out for a collabarative effort although I had it cut in two six
foot pieces not one twelve...

Right now it is going in the ol' wood bank and mind bank, waiting for some
idea to come through.

I think you hit it right though, "have fun with it" and you seem to be the
kind of person who does that with life.
