Way to go, April! I still remember taking your class at Kala and how amazing to see you print a flat expanse of blue with a baren when all I could get was brush strokes. You have to see it to belive it. Some people are just better at it than others. You must have started in preschool. Cabrillo College is a junior college, I think. Santa Cruz is beautiful in May. Wow.

Thank you for participating, thank you for your contributions.
27 blocks are in now and this is looking like a great pile of rocks!
After the next two festivals I will start placing what I have here in the
master blocks and update pictures.

I'm excited! Is everyone else excited? Just me? :-)

I forgot to let everyone know that contributions for return postage and
expenses can be made by PayPal to maria@mariarango.com if you do not want to
send cash or check or gold nuggets. I will update the website to that effect
and even place a donation button on there to make it easier...soon, very
soon.

Do any of you oily printers use anti-skin spray with cans of ink? Do
any of you the ink in a tube (use with a caulking gun) sold through
graphic chemical?

I was having problems with ink skinning over between uses, so I
switched to the big tubes. But now I am having problems getting the
ink out of the tube. Depending on the color, it won't stop flowing out
the end, or it is too stiff for me to squeeze out. A friend suggested
I return to traditional cans of ink and use anti-skin spray. Any
comments, or suggestions?
