Claire, I'm wondering just where you have seen bromoil prints and just who the artists that produced them are? Have you seen Joy Goldind's work? Maija McDougal's? Rene' Smets? Larry Shapiro's? Have you been viewing actual prints or reproductions? There are very few working in the bromoil process these days and I know most of them. I happen to think that there is some very good contemporary bromoil work being done. One person's cup of tea obviously does not appeal to all, however. Cheers, Gene
