First Successful? 3 color gum print


Getting there.

It is certainly satisfying.

Cyanotype and VDB over pigment

These prints are made by layering cyanotype or Van Dyke brown over an pigmented inkjet print.

The images are first blurred and then printed light (high key) on watercolor paper.

A full sized negative is created and printed onto an overhead projector sheet.

The emulsion is applied, dried and then exposed.

Development is as normal for cyanotype and VDB prints.
