Digital BW, The Print

actually i always bought 100% rag paper and Graphic Chemical inks and
felt safe   granted i taught myself printmaking, but i trusted stanley
hayter and peterdi and those experts    and assumed that galleries and
buyers KNEW that sun and tobacco-filled rooms would yellow their purchase

i must admit that i am puzzling some over this digital world, but it is
SUCH FUN   if you like it and can afford it, take it home   also i have
an old poorly washed and badly handled photo of my hand upon a drawing
that i did   it is in terrible shape but when i look, i have my memory
  etching was fun but, oh, so hard on the lungs

not good answers, but there you are  jno/jwp/etc
