David Bull and John Amoss,
     I am behind on reading my digests due to our southern trek to baja sur 
mexico, so I may be late and oddly behind in responding to your query as to 
whether your subject is appropriate for moku hanga printing.  Peraonally I 
found your print very beautiful.  I loved watching the step by step 
progress, it was very instructive.  Beauty as they say is in the eye of the 
beholder.  My non artist, non print maker husband stated that it looked like 
a labor of love.   (but he is really more creative than he admits and knows 
the meaning of a labor of love).  That to me says it all, it is beauty 
because it is indeed done with love.  No one can say, truly no one - in my 
opinion - what is indeed beautiful.  Perhpaps our world has changed and so 
also our ideas and concepts of beauty. Besides, as the world changes so 
should our art.
Marilynn
