Dan, so glad you are getting better. I agree that you are pushing a lot to get out some nice prints.
I am not in that exchange, but I think we should all remember that life can throw us some curves.
Patience is a good thing, at times. We need to remember that we are not making money or filling orders,
but rather exchanging work. While we do not want long delays, with unreasonable waits, some times to get a
full exchange we have to wait on someone. I think it can be worth a small wait. I will be excited to see
this exchange online!

Yes Bette your Haiku is indeed wonderful.

From an auction house in Milford, Connecticut:
"... A strong price for a Blanche Lazzell color woodblock print was established when a buyer in the room paid a record price at auction of $31,070 for a 1928 impression of "The Blue Jug ..."

This is indeed encouraging....too bad the artist is dead as usual. Wouldn't it be nice if one of us could get a lot of money for work while we are alive????
Best to all,
Barbara

Barbara,
If I had $31,000 I surely purchase your zebra print while your alive.
Honest! Its way cooler than Lazzell's Blue Jug.
Bette.
