Hey Marek,

The work really is great, including your own.  I loved your images-- so incredibly rich.  I wondered about your edges, too.  Do they just turn out like that, or do you create some extra brushing to achieve that look?  The entire presentation was perfect.

Gum prints that came from the time period that I was making prints that look like Cibachromes, absolutely saturated with color. They do make such a great contrast with her work.
