This is for Georga and anyone else who is interested in an inexpensive
way to hang prints in a showcase.   If you string thin lines of cord
across the windowed area where the prints are to be displayed and attach
hooks at either end on the window facings where you will tie the cords,
you can hang the prints across the lines with tiny clothespins that you
can buy in craft stores.  They look surprisingly attractive this way,
and I will do it again for the the showcases at the Meyer Center next
year when I do the combined Sacred Tree and Endangered Species Exhibit,
as I have been given some nice sized showcases in the main nature center
area where I will hang Baren's Endangered Species prints.  The open area
in the meeting room is where the Print Australia Sacred Tree prints will
be hung framed, as they are the larger prints and will need frames.

I'm still hoping with this large print exchange we don't have to do more
than 15 for the edition, and for me it looks like it would have to be a
black and white print rather than colors for working so large.

Jan, thanks again for your great description of your travels. I enjoyed
checking out Graham's website again for pics of "Boot Camp" and found a
great description of how to sharpen a V-gouge. It is one of the mysteries of
woodcut that has remained elusive for me after all these years!

My show is going great, by the way. Many artist friends have come by while
I'm gallery sitting, for discussions of changes in printmaking since the
advent of the computer. The show includes my portfolio of woodcuts as well
as large format digital prints. You can't beat the texture and color of
hanga woodcut, but the digital offers great flexibility in composing and
collaging, and it has been great to work at a larger scale. I want it all!!!

I got a nice write up at World printmakers

best,
