I am planning on having a small selection of prints in the Grove art show this fall.  the images posted to the cottage renovations blog and its galleries are optimized for online viewing and will require different processing for print. 

a certain highly venerated Town resident has been asking me to put together a Grove coffee table book.  such a project would considerably exceed my technical competence and (very) limited artistic ability, but 12 pages doesn't seem to be an unreasonable goal so with that in mind I am looking to compile and publish (privately) a wall calendar of Grove images.  it would need to be out and available before the end of this year.  I'm figuring on a rather small press run because I don't think the world would have a great deal of interest in a Grove-specific calendar. 

as the project inches forward I know that one of the first questions from the printer will be about the quantity to be produced.  in this regard it would be quite helpful if anybody who reads this and thinks they might be interested (sight unseen, but by now you should have a good idea of what to expect) could reply to this entry using the comment link below, or by email to 15_the_circle@livejournal.com.   no obligation to order or purchase, of course, just trying to get a feel for the quantity needed. 

thank you.
