What a relief, literally!

After yet another several days of living in the darkroom, I emerge victorious (this time) with a finished carbon transfer print. This is the result of using a very thick "glop" that's lightly pigmented, highly sugared, under-sensitized, and severely over-exposed. Check out this relief...

For more information on carbon transfer printing, check out Sandy King's legendary article, "The Bostick and Sullivan Book of Modern Carbon Printing", and if you'd like to learn a bit first-hand, I also offer Carbon Transfer Printing Workshops.

See you guys next week, for now, I'm off to Photostock 2012! ^__^

End of Season Sale: Barbershop Prints!

 Hey folks! Hope the increasingly nice weather has been making its way around, because it seems to have been here in Findlay, OH for quite some time. :)

 As Spring 2012 comes to a close, the final bit of spring cleaning is about to go with it. For a limited time, I'm offerring the remaining half of my solo exhibition "Dapper". The show was a great success, and the matted, mounted prints that are here need to get onto some wallspace ASAP. If you've been waiting for the chance to snag up a print from my Barbershops Series, there's no better chance than now!

Simply check the listing below for size availability, select your desired print, and buy it now. Prints are all hand-printed, B&W silver gelatin fiber prints, selenium toned, matted, and mounted, ready to hang. They are also one-ofs, so once each print is sold, there won't be another of that print at this price. 

Thanks for stopping by, and long live film! :)

Spring Cleaning, Week 2

In celebration of "Tax Day" here in the USA, it's back to "Spring Cleaning" here in the darkroom. This week's deal is one that you will not see again on this site. In celebration of another 364 days until taxes are due again, here are my first four images made on 8x10 infrared film, available to you as 16x20" silver gealtin fiber prints, for the low, low price of $100 + S&H. Get 'em while they're hot off the press, literally, because they won't be here for long!

 Just a quick reminder, all B&W prints are hand made by me in the darkroom, are printed on double-weight fiber paper that has been selenium toned for archival permanence, signed and numbered by yours truly, and will ship encased in a protective sleeve and backboard. For the collectors out there, I'll only be printing these images as 16x20 until the end of this month, so consider this a very, very limited edition run.

Thanks all for looking, and as always, long live film!
