Karin,

I wish I had read your post more carefully! I went charging over to Pearl looking for J.W.'s products and, alas, found none.

"Craft" store was the operative word. For anyone interested in J. W.'s products and how they work see http://www.jwetc.com/products/rs.html

Marvin, I shared you concern about Genesis and its archival integrity. For my application, however, I believe it will suffice. I plan to print several paintings (where I will keep the originals). Since I am on the downside of 40 now, I am hopeful that the paintings will outlast me. I do not hope to become a famous artist (living or otherwise) and have no heirs to inherit my collection. My paintings will probably end up in the Goodwill bin

and I just might get a chuckle from upstairs when (upon purchasing my pictures for $5.00 each) the bemused Goodwill shopper sighs, "If only she had used archival paints..."
