Subject: [Baren 33692] washing brushes
Send Message: To this poster

I have a rather simple question about cleaning the brushes we use for
spreading the pigment and paste on the blocks. Is it alright to use
soap on these brushes or do we just rinse them carefully with water? I
have had mine for a few years now and use soap gingerly, but they are
looking a bit worse for wear. Perhaps that is just to be expected. JB

Subject: [Baren 33693] Exchange #34
Send Message: To this poster

Exchange #34 currently has 10 participants - so there's room for at least 20
more! If you haven't previously done a Baren Exchange, this small format
(10x7.5 inches) exchange with no theme (any image you'd care to make) HAS to
be as easy to complete as any we've organized - so if you're sitting on the
fence, JUMP IN and give it a try - you have until November 1 to deliver your
edition of 31 woodblock prints and soon after all 30 printers have done so,
you'll receive a beautiful suite of prints, one from each participating
artist - a VERY cool way to collect work by some already very accomplished
artists!



http://barenforum.org/exchange/exchange_sign-up.html -- read the 'rules'
then fill out and submit the form about 2/3 of the way down the page - then
CUT! PRINT! DELIVER! You'll be so glad you did!



Good luck,



Mike
