Greetings to you all,
Last week I presented my woodblock prints for a one man show (November to March 2007/8). During my interview with the curator and staff I put forward thoughts about meeting the general public, demonstrating techniques and workshops at the gallery. Rural based performances and exhibitions are a priority in the arts in UK, particularly with venues that are supported by cultural and heritage organisations. I was pleased that the curator accepted my work and ideas for an exhibition in the gallery of the nearby Gainsborough Old Hall. Bareners may recall that I have been transposing direct sketches of the Hall for quite some time and to hold an exhibition in the actual building is a real bonus.
U.S.A members, particularly those in the Boston/Massachusetts area, may be interested to know that the Separatists (Pilgrim Fathers) met in the Hall before escaping to Holland and then America.
John Wesley also preached there and reported that "At two it was filled with a rude and wild multitude".
I hope this is not an omen for my opening next November !!
All the best,
Harry

I am a member of the Silver Lake Art Collective and next weekend we are
having the 6th annual Open Studio Tour. So those of you in or around Los
Angeles come on up to my house next
Saturday or Sunday and Friday November 3rd at the J. Ferrari Gallery from
7pm to 10pm, 3015 Glendale Blvd. The studio tour will be from 11am to 5pm
and my house is on the tour. There will be Ruth Doolittle, a ceramicist,
Tom Hastings a person who makes wonderful fountains and me, woodcut prints
and paintings. It should be a great day. Come up. 2206 Micheltorena
Street, Los Angeles, 90039. I'll have a map for you to the other open
studios.

In addition I will be having a Retrospective Paint and Print show at the J.
Ferrari Gallery in April. The opening will be April 7th. Let me know if
you might be in LA around that time. Also, remember, we have a train
excursion for the Summit Folks down to my Birthday Party on April 14th. I
hope you have the date on your calendar. Bea

Carol I bought an EPSON 3490 about 6-7 months ago and love it. It will
remove red eye and scans really well. Go to Pc world.com they are great at
evaluating the best out there for the money. This one was not spendy, I do
not want a lot of fancy features and mine died when I put in windows xp, not
compatible. Gads scanning should not be stressful!
