Because I include the frame in the pricing of my portraits, I can buy the frames at the wholesale price from JFM. If you "resell" there should be no problem obtaining frames from JFM. If you wish a tax number, inquire at your local town hall...

As to the traditional oils vs. Genesis, I probably wouldn't have thought to change anything regarding my materials if I had managed to stay healthy. It was the surprise of my life to discover that I needed to switch materials or possibly quit painting. I never was much good at playing the viola...so, I switched to a different kind of paint.

Traditional oils are wonderful! I even miss the smell... I'd say that if something really works for you, don't "fix" it. Lots of folks use toxic substances every day and don't get hurt. I wasn't that lucky. Thank God for Genesis, as I have many more paintings in me and such a limited time to do them in...
