Marvin:
I challenge you to show me ONE painting done with Maroger's that has darkened or cracked. Have you or anyone here EVER actually seen a painting by Maroger or anyone using one of his mediums - or is this just more magpie repeating of "things I heard somewhere?"
Where is it actually DOCUMENTED by a credible source that using Maroger medium will cause these problems and where does it say what TYPE of Maroger medium was used that would have caused such darkening? Further, where is it documented how MUCH medium was used in the painting, how it was prepared and what environment the painting was stored in after it was painted and were any of those conditions a factor in the darkening or cracking.
Otherwise, it is best to leave my choice of medium out of it.
