Hi folks did you take the time to see his work.....Mike Lyon, Kansas
City, Missouri http://mlyon.com ................ incredible
and the "reduction" at his site is so incredible........... i have no
words..my breathe and brain function for words were taken completely
away with this wonderful work. When you enlarge his photo, you get
such a beautiful woodcut. His woodworking is to dye for too......(pun
intended)

I loved the technical or chemistry explanations about the glue and
binders. As mostly a tole painter, i am constantly wondering, what did
they put in this paint to bind it? Why is is ok to thin with water
w/some paints and not with others (talking all acrylics here)? So i
don't, i just use the flow medium if something gets to thick! And the
companies that make the stuff; don't answer emails about their binders
or their colorfastness.

Thanks Mike, for the looksee and the explanations!!

Peace Love and Blessings
