Gumoil Photographic Printing - There is renewed interest among art photographers in a number of historic printing techniques because of the remarkable effects they produce. The reader will discover how to create beautifully tinted mono- and polychromatic gum and oil images using the author's version of this 19th century technique. Step-by-step illustrated instructions with directions for further experimentation provide a perfect source for learning this new, yet old, printing technique.
Gumoil printing involves contact-printing a positive transparency onto gum-coated paper. Oil paint is then applied and rubbed into nongummed areas of the print. With bleach etching, mono- and polychromatic variations are possible. A chapter on digital printing combines the new and the historic, making this technique even more accessible for the art photographer.
Readership: Professional Photographers and Printers Advanced Photography Courses. Includes a new chapter on digital printing techniques. Step by step instructions for using this technique. Eight page insert containing 10 beautiful color images.
About the Author: Practicing clinical psychologist. He has exhibited, published art and written for Darkroom and Creative Camera Magazine
