Re: greens in gum

[John Brewer <john@johnbrewerphotography.com>]

I remember reading in a book somewhere that greens are more likely to stain 
and should be made from yellow and blue. I've not had a stain problem with 
greens. One of those gum old wives tales I guess. Here's recent gum over 
cyanotype http://tinyurl.com/ly3bb using DVP 277 sap green (PG7 and PY 42).
