I would not be surprised if you have discovered more. There was another American theatre title I came across but was never sure whether it was a colour woodcut. <br /><br />Joseph Pennell said that once Fletcher got an idea in his head he could be determined and W.J. Phillips said that it was his insistence on the use of the Japanese method that put William Giles off. Giles clearly talked about his own experience to Phillips and Malcolm Salaman. Giles was twenty-seven when he took Fletcher's class and was better-trained than Fletcher and I think this might have been one of the problems. Fletcher taught the Japanese method and some students responded better than others to his approach. I think your are right about his effectiveness because you only have to look at the good standard of the prints made by his students, especially at Santa Barbara. Even so, some struggled with the method - even Seaby did at first. The few references I have come across all suggest he was a conservative teacher. His friend A.S. Hartrick believed he couldn't 'let go' - his words, not mine.<br /><br />Haji babahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10619515066447546979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195425069670824214.post-74888722500942878872017-09-25T03:39:14.420+01:002017-09-25T03:39:14.420+01:00I've only been able to identify 16 prints made...I've only been able to identify 16 prints made by Frank Morley Fletcher. That he was able to communicate the process to so many with such a small portfolio is certainly a sign of what a dynamic teacher he must have been.Paul Ritscherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07517289543141517594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195425069670824214.post-26200179111824238732014-10-26T00:01:31.888+01:002014-10-26T00:01:31.888+01:00Ooo -- can't wait!Ooo -- can't wait!lotusgreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04393867916489599891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195425069670824214.post-27646476282778162012014-10-25T17:15:01.984+01:002014-10-25T17:15:01.984+01:00Thanks, Lily.
