Darkroom Workshops, Summer 2012

It's been one heck of a spring so far here in Findlay, OH, and even after several photo contests and a solo exhibition, the darkroom is only getting warmed up!

If you're looking to add a few new darkroom skills to the arsenal, or are just looking for some experienced darkroom coaching, be sure to check out my latest series of Summer 2012 Darkrom Workshops. As of right now, I'm offerring:

• One-on-One Workshops
• Carbon Printing
• Intro to the B&W Darkroom

 All workshops include use of the darkoom facilities, chemistry, supplies, paper, everything you need to carry out the processes I'm teaching. In the case of the all weekend carbon printing workshop, I'm even including lunch at a great local restaurant!

That's pretty much it, get out there and shoot while the weather is great, and once the "Dog Days" of summer start rolling around, have your calendars marked, film exposed, and head on down to Findlay so we can have some fun in the darkroom (see below).

Happy shooting, 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!

Spring Cleaning Specials!

Hope everyone has enjoyed the holiday weekend, or at very least the lovely Spring weather that seems to be everywhere at once. Spring means one thing here in the darkroom, and that's clean-up! While doing some deep cleaning, I came across some more prints that I'm now pleased to offer you at a fabulous price. :) Each week this month, I'll be offering up a new print for sale, but since these are one-of, ready to hang prints, once these deals are gone, they're gone!

Why just favorite it when you can own it? -->

First up is one of my Top 10 most viewed, favorited, and shared images, Lauren in Times Square. This 10x10" Kodak Endura RA-4 color print will come pre-matted, mounted, and enclosed in a 16x16" matte black brushed metal frame. The framed print is wired, and ready to hang, all you have to do is click the button below.

 That's it for this week's deal, tune in next week for an even BIGGER print offer. ^__^
