When my print goes up on the Brickbats page, 
http://woodblock.com/forum/critique.html
I invite everyone to critique it.  Your input is so valuable, you have no
idea. The print was inspired by an off-list argument that old Ray and I
were having--the Ray who is no longer on the list.  It was done in a hurry,
because I had previously made a print without using paper size, and it was
not working out.  Instead of printing more, I made a new design.

But maybe I'm jumping the gun.  Julio's charming baren group is still up
there.

Hi
My son has taken my web page as his hobby and has seen the slide show on the
Baren.. So he now put one on my web page. I never know what he is going to
do next.
I guess I am lucky as I do not have to do a thing.

If you are not busy, check it out at;

Thanks for the address of the person who does chops. I am going to send for
his catalog.

The page has now been updated, and Jean is waiting for your comments on
her work.

The work is very interesting Jeanne, and very well presented.  My only
request would be that you adjust the timing so that each image would
remain longer.  Perhaps it's because I have a fast internet connection,
I don't know, but each one only stays on the screen for a couple of
seconds - not long enough by far.
