Bea, regarding your friend's warning about the  "giving a cat a colonic" =
virus,
this might help ease your mind.

http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/give.a.cat.a.colonic.hoax.html

There are good websites for checking out virus scares.  Dan is right.=20
If there is something truly to worry about, it hits the news before you
get an email to urgently pass along to friends.  I've received so many
of those warnings over the years, that I automatically go to the hoax
sites to see what's new, and usually sure enough. =20

Yes...sorry...I forgot to mention that these large works are priced betwe=
en
$1200 and $1500
each. Some of the larger (but older paintings) are priced at $300....but =
the
comparison
between the old and new style is very striking, specially in the brightne=

colors
and palette used.

Thanks.. JR


"For those interested on the current exhibit on display at the Skokie Lib=

These are some very large pieces (acrylic paintings) bordering on 4 X 4' =
and
some older ones around 4 X 8'. This exhibit is a big contrast to our
"smaller-sized"
but more numerous upcoming Baren event.

Thanks...Julio "

I am often asked to describe the experience of raising a child with a
disability...
To try to help people who have not shared that unique experience to
understand it...
to imagine how it would feel.
It is like this:
When you are going to have a baby, it is like planning a fabulous vacatio=
n
trip to Italy.
You buy a bunch of guidebooks and make wonderful plans..The Coliseum,
Michelangelo,
David,gondolas in Venice.  You may even learn some handy phrases in Itali=
an.
It is all very exciting.
After months of eager anticipation, the day finally arrives.  You pack yo=
ur
bags and off you go.
Several hours later, the plane lands.  The flight attendant comes in and
says, "Welcome to Holland".
"HOLLAND?!" you ask. "What do you mean Holland?  I signed up for Italy!
I am supposed to be in Italy.  All my life I have dreamed of going to
Italy."
There has been a change in flight plan.
They have landed in Holland and there you must stay.
The important thing is that they haven't taken you to a horrible,
disgusting, filthy place, full of pestilence, famine and disease.  It's j=
ust
a different place.
It's a different pace than Italy...less flashy than Italy.
However, after you have been there for a while and you catch your breath,
you look around and begin to notice that Holland has windmills...Holland =
has
tulips.
Holland even has Rembrandt.
But everyone you know is busy coming and going from Italy, and they are a=
ll
bragging about what a wonderful time they had there.  And for the rest of
your life, you will say, "Yes, that is where I was supposed to go, that i=
s
what I had planned".
And the pain of that will never, ever go away because the loss of that dr=
eam
is a very significant loss.
However, if you spend your life mourning the fact that you didn't get to
Italy, you may never be free to enjoy the very special, the very lovely
things about Holland.

Well, the lovely thing about the SwapShop program is that you avoid all
of the stress you mention above.  You send in your prints when you are
ready.  You get prints back eventually through the good graces of fellow
printmakers.  So, I don't want to nag anyone into rushing their prints
out; but I do want to strongly encourage those who are able to send in
prints soon so that we can get this program out of the hanger and into
the air!

Jeanne, the answer to your question is, "No."  For the moment, we are
only accepting prints from an edition -- open or otherwise, just so long
as they are the same.  How many you send is up to you, but the minimum is
five.  There is a chance we may offer a once a year "open your drawers"
(easy, Graham) special, but for now please send in prints from the same
edition.
