Send Message: To this poster
This is actually to Senol Sak, who is a member of this group, but wanted to
send it to Baren because I know a number of you are probably facebook
friends with Senol. I wasn't sure whether, if Senol's account has been hacked,
whether it was safe to message back and forth there. If someone has
Senol's email address, please pass this on to Senol:
Senol, I recently received a message from your account that tagged a lot of
people and then had a link. These can often be spam, so I didn't go to
the link. If this didn't come from your account, following is a link to a
facebook help page which may help you to secure your account.

There is a lot of spam and such going around facebook so it's better to be
safe than sorry!
best wishes and take care, everyone, Sarah

Subject: Until you've had enough, you haven't had enough
Posted by: Sherrie Y

I suspect most of us have been, at one time or another, in relationships that should have ended a very long time before they actually did. We want them to work out. We exaggerate the good aspects, turn a blind eye to all the "little things" and slog forward despite evidence of impending doom. We've made promises, dammit, and we're going to keep them. So despite mounting troubles with disintegrating paper, clumping inks, outrageous dry times, and physically punishing hours with baren and spoon I naturally kept working on a print that probably should have been scrapped at color #2, not #13. You know how it is: you keep hoping that the next action will be the one to sort out all the problems and salvage the relationship. But even the most starry-eyed romantic must eventually abandon a love affair that's good for no one. As a wise friend once said, "When you've had enough, you've had enough. But until you've had enough, you haven't had enough." Here's where the piece was two weeks ago, when apparently I still hadn't had enough:  I liked the dark blue color in the piece on the left, but it didn't define the still-nebulous shapes as I had hoped it would.
