Re: Eb1400 kit on Hahnemüle Fine Art Baryta

I wonder if Mark (http://www.aardenburg-imaging.com/index.html) would be open to submission of prints under glass. Of course there are various types of glass, too.

But it must be sprayed, the "grain" with just MK is a bit courser than I like, and the dilute Eboni is very warm.  So, I didn't think it was a route that many would want to follow.
