print share - john mallery

John Mallery is the President of the Nelson Atkins Print Society. He shares an etching impression which his parents, maybe even his great- grandparents, owned. 

 
The great thing about the print share salon at the Creative Cafe is the personality of each member as each shared their favorite print. Humor and respect go hand in hand with this group. Which is probably why the membership is growing as quickly as it is these days. Double click on images to enlarge.
Video is three minutes.



Albrecht Durer made a cameo appearance in the etched procession An 1870 version of Where's Waldo.
The full procession is next.

Another plus for this group is how much one learns from the people who attend the function you also attend. There is much expertise in the room. As in the next video.

Video is four minutes.
Stephen Pruitt tells viewers where the PLATE MARK is underneath the mat. Remarques were little etched images that showed special distinction to a given etched impression.
