Joanna--

    First let me say that I looked at your website and your work is
    really quite fabulous.

    Second, let me say that I agree with you completely about SNAG and
    Clasp. I do go to the SNAG meetings--and see friends and colleagues
    that I have met thru SNAG. But the cost of SNAG pales beside CLasp. I
    would really love to go to Clasp--it seems to be for people like
    us--studio artists, etc. But the cost is prohibitive--even without
    room and board. Don't know how this will be resolved--maybe there
    will be some adjustment after the first "convergence" in September. I
    think there was a short thread about this subject a couple of months
    ago--maybe the powers that be (re Clasp) can respond and let us know
    why the cost is so high.

    Carolyn
    (Looking forward to seeing your books and was happy to see Suzanne
    Pugh on your links page!!)
