Product Description
Product Description
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.
Includes a new chapter on digital printing techniques
Step by step instructions for using this technique
Eight page insert containing 10 beautiful color images

Update of content
I have updated this book in recent articles which describe shortcuts using the computer to generate the inter-positives needed to make gumoil prints. I can supply these references to interested readers. If readers are not interested in the shortcuts the book is still completely timely. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
