Baren Digest Sunday, 1 December 2002 Volume 21 : Number 2046 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Charles Morgan Date: Sat, 30 Nov 2002 07:54:13 -0800 Subject: [Baren 20009] Re: Baren Digest V21 #2039 Marilynn, I have had the prints from exchange 14a for a week or so now. I put them in a portfolio, and I have been flipping through them almost every day. I feel I learn something from every print in the collection, and it is a real joy to have them. Thanks for setting up the exchange and volunteering to coordinate it. I learn more with every print I attempt, and of course my fellow participants are always a source of inspiration and knowledge. Congratulations to all of you. Cheers ...... Charles At 10:16 AM 11/25/02 -0800, you wrote: >Carol loved seeing your work. Always a treat when someone >shares.

Fantastic prints. I agree with Charles Morgan; it is a set of prints to enjoy, re-enjoy, re-enjoy ... and learn. Thank you. Hor‡cio.

I know it takes a long time to write those things out, even for you who seems to do it so easily and well. It is good to see that all your hard work pays off. Happy Holidays to all!

Thanks for the link to these gorgeous woodblock prints. What a visual feast! Has anyone used a "book press" or antique screw press for printing their blocks? what was your experience?
