Jane,
 
I totally agree about the permanence question. If flowers are not permanent
why
should images made from them be any different? For what it is worth, the
Anthotypes I have made in the spring of this year have not faded at all so
far.
Please share your results with fruit emulsions. have not tried them so far.

I haven't tried Anthotypes, but this dicussion has reminded me to...I was
told by a friend who did an experimental workshop on this process that fruit
dyes like raspberry, blackberry, beetroot, and red cabbage work well, and
the dyes are less tiresome to collect than flower dyes. I am going out to
get beetroot today and will run some tests. I also like the idea that these
images are not so permanent...it seems somewhat liberating.
