Thanks all,

I like the ammo can idea. I am trying to go non-toxic/flammable also but I still have some paint and solvents I want to keep from buring down the house. I also found that SoySolv is a good cleaner.

Thank you María:
In Spanish: “Grabado ensamble colaborativo”, Do you like it? We plan for each person to print their own and buy their own paper. I hope we can do it.

That is a wonderful idea to go global. If I can participate in one or you will send a call please let me know.
Greetings, Guadalupe

Send Message: To this poster

Several years ago an international group of printmakers came together to promote mini-print exchanges at the time of the two annual solstices. We formed an on-line discussion group on Yahoo known as SSNW. Although many Bareners participate in our exchanges, our exchanges are NOT part of the Baren exchange sequence. It is now time for our next exchange, and you are invited to participate. The details are given below.

I have some waterless hand cleaner called citrafresh
that works well on almost anything....making me think
it must have something evil in it. But it does do an
amazing job and smells good and leaves my hands
soft..a huge factor for a woman. ha. Plus you can just
toss it in the garbage, so they say.
My best to all

Question: Is it ethical to paste a piece of wood that you cut by mistake? If it is can you give me some advice of the materials and the way to do it? I read once at Baren that to make the wood soft you have to put oil. Does this work with plywood also?

Hello everyone,

I received my package of prints from exchange 36 and I promptly took it
into my painting class. The students were so impressed and inspired.
Thank you all for your wonderful works and especially to Carole for
collating and sending the works. (I apologize for the slight delay,
the first time in eight years I had to call in sick from my teaching
job-- and everything else, including this lovely exchage was waylaid).

The cairn is looking so great! I am really intregued to find out the
stories behind each and every rock. Thanks for your hard work and
determination Maria! What's next?

I am starting a couple of new vertical, tall skinny landscapes. I
think I am feeling the pressure of mega-development in our area and the
result is a squeezed in slice of landscapes sort of work.

My best to you all!

Happy printing.

Renee
