Subject: [Baren 15107] expanding print exchange 

30 prints is enough for me to make!  I made 40 for Print Australia and that
was too much for this old printmaker.  At the time, however, I was saying
yeah, 40, yeah, bring them on.

Sorry, everyone, I forgot to delete the quoted portion of the message before
I hit send - and remembered in that split second that it was to late to
remedy. I remember to delete about 9 out of 10 times - hey, that's pretty
good for me, Wanda!

On the exchanges: could we do a Part I and Part II of the same exchange. The
second portfolio would have different prints, but both could be displayed
together, or separately. It seems to me this might be really nice when there
is a themed show - it doesn't necessarily make much sense if its not.

I like the idea of limiting the registrants by eliminating those who have
been in the last two exchanges.

C'mon, people!  Take pity on this poor man.  It's all well and good to
talk about what to do if one doesn't make it into the exchange and we can
all chat about how many people should be let in to this or that salon,
blah blah blah until we all turn blue.  

We're all printmakers, right?  And printmakers make... prints!  

So what are you waiting for?  You don't need a deadline or theme or an
excuse to participate in SwapShop.  Tyrus's and other's prints are
languishing waiting for other paper with which to commingle!

Cut!  Print!  Send!  NOW!

Your friendly Swap Shop coordinator,
James Mundie

Subject: [Baren 15110] print-exchange 

- - Julio wrote in respect to my proposal

"This is a very similar setup to the Baren Swapshop....no deadlines,
variable number of prints, work at your own pace..."

May be I was not clear enough in my example:

"Example: It was decided that the print ex-change "fire-bird" will "run" on
25 prints, with dead-line for reception mm.dd.yy.  Until mm.dd.yy. 66
participants sent in 25 prints each and will now receive 25 prints back."

There would be a clear dead-line involved, the date all prints have to be
sent in.

- - In respect to print-exchange: I have some interest in an exchange of
rather
large prints up to 22x30 inches. Anybody else ?

PS. Just added something that might be of interest to all of you "Cemetary"
people. It is on my web page;  http://www.jeannenormanchase-art.com
then click on New Things.

Beautiful etching ! Thanks for the trip to the "Pere LeChaise" Cemetary in
Paris.
