Hi Guys,

At long last the "Nudes Alfresco" exchange is done. It has been such a long time that I'm not sure if your addresses are current. Could you/ would you please contact me off list with a yay or nay on the address I now have for you and of of course, any new addresses.

Thanks,

Barbara Patera

Subject: [Baren 34365] Cairn LAST CALL
Send Message: To this poster

This will be the last reminder for those who are still hanging on to those
little blank blocks. Still missing eight.
A request: If you cannot carve the block, could you please find it and stick
a couple of stamps on it and send it back? I have received several emails
from people who would love to jump in at the eleventh hour as a substitute
or at least I wouldn't have to cut another block to fill in the holes.

My schedule will not permit me to print the Cairn until after my last
festival this year, beginning of December. As I announced last time, blocks
are welcome until make-ready begins, at which time I will officially close
the project. Blocks will be glued to a backing and any holes will be filled
with blank blocks or maybe left as holes. I might modify the "skeleton" of
the Cairn to accommodate, which will make the pile more interesting; will
know more when I start this.

I wanted also to announce that they will be printed on my BRAND NEW XPRESS
PRO WHELAN PRESS!!! :-D
Anyhow, toning down the excitement...

Thank you all for participating. I will begin assembling the blocks in a
couple of weeks to start the process and update the web pages.

Maria

Maria,

A GREAT BIG THANKS for sticking to this project and seeing it through, in spite of all the bumps along the way. I am really looking forward to the prints.

Cheers ..... Charles

I also tried to reply, but my note was rejected because the mailbox had over 550 pieces of mail in it. Maybe you could give us a different mailbox, Mary? I know you have several!

Thanks,

MessageMaria -
I know how exciting it can be to have a Whelan - I lucked into a Whelan-Pro a few years ago, and I loved having it. But, when we moved we decided it was tooooo big and sold it (to a very lucky and happy fellow!). As it turned out, I would have room for it in my new studio, and now I really regret having gotten rid of it. I'll never be able to afford a new one. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I'll run across another used one (fat chance). I've never made any prints that big - I only ran little prints thru it, but you never know!
I'm considering the Uber-Press tho, I could probably afford that one. It looks very interesting, but definitely slower for production time. But then, it's the process not the product that I enjoy!
