I hope Bill answers for himself, but let me just add this- A very well
known print artist did a widely collected and exhibited group of work
made from inks mixed from food, like blueberry pie filling, etc...
I suspect they are insured by the large museum I saw them at for very
large amounts...So, what rules apply there?
We don't disagree Harold, as far as I can tell, like Bill I think this
is a hot button for me. The rules are whatever suites them at the
time. You will become established, or not, for other reasons.
