Dean, thanks for sharing your memories. It is always hard to lose a
special friend and it seems Francisco Mendoza was indeed very special.

Carol, loved your work.

I recommend that everyone take time to put together a group of your
work on a blog or web site. it gave me a lot of food for thought.
Looking at it as a body of work I could see which pieces I liked best.
With that insight I can better guide the direction for future work. I
have done shows before but this was different. I had no specific
theme, just work. So it was nice to have comparisons of different
directions I have taken. It was not hard to upload stuff to a Blog, it
was just taking the time to DO IT.

Spring is on the way, outdoor painting starts today!

Subject: The Adventures of Use-Only-Five-Colors Woman!
Posted by: Sherrie York

When we last left our hero, she had embarked on a new reduction linocut. Her mission? Pick only five colors and stick with them.

As you may recall, the effort began like this:


The second color was also a blue, but Use-Only-Five-Colors Woman neglected to take a photo. In the end this second color turned out so much like the first that it almost doesn't count. Too late to turn back now, though.

Third color... light ochre.


Fourth color... a darker ochre.
