Thanks for the answers to my gold problems. I will try the glue and
powder system, since I have this really fine gold powder. We'll see
what happens! I wish I had a David Bull in my hip pocket and I could
bring him out at times like these. sigh.

Cheers ~

SA Baren Summit Cancelled,
Juried Exhibition in SA

I am so disappointed to have to say I am cancelling the Baren Summit. This has been a dream I worked on for over thre years now, so it is hard to let the dream go.
We had so many people that wanted to come, registered, then had to cancel because they were suffering from hardship this year. We will not have the participation to support the Summit in general.

In addition, the tsunami caused financial problems for the company that was supporting me, so I lost sponsorship.


We will still be having the juried exhibition "Reliefs for Relief", with the McNAy Museum curator jurying. The deadline is extended to April 29.
If you would like to enter prints email me for the Call for Entry and the Entry Form, and the deadlie is extended to April 29. Entry is by emailed digital images. ( This is exhibition is not connected with the Baren or the "Inspired by Japan", also referred to as "reliefs for reief" exchange project spearheaded by Barbara Mason)


You may call me for any questions, 210-722-3840.

Yours,
Le Green Schubert

Subject: Confused by the two blogs?
Posted by: Dave Bull

One of the collectors wrote a short note the other day asking/suggesting that I think about making it easier for people to move back and forth between the two blogs on my site. I quickly put a couple of links on the two front pages, no problem. But it then occurred to me to check the logbooks to see what kind of traffic patterns the two blogs have, and I found that the RoundTable gets a lot more attention than the Conversations ... Let's try to rectify that!

The one you are visiting right now is - of course - the Woodblock RoundTable. Topics here are those generally related to my 'own' printmaking - the prints I carve and print myself, and which fall under my 'Seseragi Studio' label. The other blog, the Mokuhankan Conversations, deals with the work that I do in cooperation with other craftsmen, published under the 'Mokuhankan' mark.

Those blogs have their own RSS feeds, but to help make it a bit easier to follow both, I have amended the design so that the front page of each one now also includes a direct link to the most recent post on the other one.


Please (continue to) read them both ... It's quite safe; there is no such thing as a 'woodblock overdose'!
