Mostly Hunts with a few Speedballs mixed in, nothing particularly fancy I don’t think iirc clogging is more about the ink than nibs. No acrylics, and India ink is sus as well, it’s too crusty for nibs. Scratching could be from having to press too hard, it should flow out real easy.

Nah the test prints I did at the same exposure but without peroxide are fine and have as expected (first pic) and right out of the bath they looked fine (second pic, not WB calibrated but you get the idea)

Hey #cyanotype peeps, ideas why these came out so pale? Jacquard solution on printmaking paper, peroxide bath, dried overnight between newsprint. They came out of development pretty good but have lost a lot of saturation

One last piece before my market this weekend. This year is shaping up to be graphic-al Reduction linocut print, ink on paper 11 x 14 inches #printsky #printmaking #bicycle #bikes

A photograph of two traditional block prints stacked together. Both are of the same image of a retro road bike done in black and white, on top of a solid colored background that differs between the two: on the top, a greenish-bluish gray, the bottom a sort of emerald green.

A traditional block print of a colorful, cartoony octopus-like sea monster named Tina. Her eyes are googly and her tongue is lolling out. Her tentacles, suckers replaced by googly eyes, are lunging at the viewer. It is framed in a manner suggesting a Polaroid picture.

#artvsartist2025 It was a slow year for printmaking, but I’ve had a blast with medium format photography and developing my own film, and I’ve had a bunch of fun drawing for the wee one

A grid of art with a picture of the artist in the middle. Clockwise from top left: a print of a belted kingfisher; a linocut snowy mountain landscape with a blue sky; an engraved print of a woman looking at the viewer; a couple of cartoony airplanes done in crayon; three black and white photographs of architecture and trees; and a linocut print of a desert mountain landscape

QRP hair art I tend to draw the suggestion of hair more than anything, but I really do love messing with the shapes of it #printmaking #drawing #art #portrait

A picture of a black-on-white drypoint print, a simple line drawn portrait of a punk woman

An oblique photo of a dark violet block print portrait of a woman, focused on her face and hair. The hair is simply rendered with a string of flowers across the top.

A pencil sketch portrait of a woman. Her chin is on her hand, and she’s looking out just past the viewer. Her hair is parted and flows down her head and behind her shoulders.

A photo of a black-on-white block print. The subject is the suggestion of a woman seeming to emerge from shadow, the form coming from the white skin of her face and hands, and a suggestion of the outline of her hair and gown.

And as we wind on down the road Our shadows taller than our soul There walks a lady we all know Who shines white light and wants to show How everything still turns to gold And if you listen very hard The tune will come to you at last When all are one, and one is all To be a rock and not to roll

It’s been uh…. 23 years (🤮) since I was last in a darkroom, but I got to break that streak. Film is cool, but putting a blank sheet of paper in some water and watching an image appear from nothing is cooler #film #darkroom #photography

A picture of a photograph, a black and white silver gelatin print. The photo is a picture of a mountain peak rising from the ground, the many layers of rock visible much of the way up. In the foreground are some tour busses, and the sky behind it only has faint, wispy clouds

A picture of a photograph, a black and white silver gelatin print. The photo is of a new born baby wrapped up in a blanket, laying in his hospital bed. His hands are by his cheek and his eyes are just barely open, looking off the right of the image.

A picture of a photograph, a black and white silver gelatin print. The picture is of a tree hanging on the edge of a stream bank. Much of the ground under it having been washed away, the tree’s gnarled roots have turned into support columns stretching to ground level.

(5/x) The wedding was on the opposite coast outside of Glasglow, so we packed up and hopped on a couple of trains (yay trains!) Of course, the church was old and adorable #film #filmphotography #streetphotography #scotland

A black and white photograph of a old church and its yard. The church is in the rear, small and made of stone. On the left is an gnarled old tree, and two weathered headstones sit in front of it.

(4/x) Edinburgh is a gorgeous city, really need to come back some day #film #filmphotography #streetphotography #edinburgh #scotland

A black and white photograph of a group of people milling around an old stone, castle-like structure. One large group of people are on ground level standing around a portcullis opening. Some other people are climbing up a long set of stairs on the right side of the picture, and a few others are just walking around.

Edinbugh Castle, Scotland

A black and white photograph of a street scene, taken from a sidewalk. The street is old and narrow with modern cars driving in one direction, the buildings on either side (also old, and made in stone) tower over the street. People walk down the left sidewalk away from the camera, below a sign on the far left "Virgin Hotels". The road drives through a tall arch supporting a crossing road, on top of which a double-decker buss is driving.

Edinburgh, Scotland

A black and white photograph of a shuttered street-front business. A sign over the shutters is for a bar named "Shenanigans", but it looks like it's out of business. The shutters are covered in graffiti, and spray painted on the wall next to it is "Free Palestine" and some other words.

Edinburgh, Scotland

A black and white photograph of a street scene. A bunch of cars, led by a London-style taxi, are driving into a roundabout. Buildings on either side are old and largely made of stone. In the distance, in the opening looking down the street, is Edinburgh Castle perched on a large cliff.

(3/x) I took a gamble on going all #film, and like a true sicko I chose my Minolta Autocord, a medium-format TLR with a rudimentary light meter. I had six rolls of my favorite Tri-X 400, and two rolls of HP5. I ended up just shooting the six #filmphotography #streetphotography #edinburgh #scotland

A black and white photograph looking down a city street from the sidewalk. The buildings on either side are stone and obviously old. A couple of modern cars drive along the road, and people walk on the sidewalks.

Edinbugh, Scotland

A black and white photograph of the front of an old building, looking down an opening in the building for an alley that leads to the rear of the building. On either side of the alley are stores, the one on the left showing "everything must go" signs. The opening has some ornate iron work, and is surrounded by various historical signs. One sign on the top says "Panmure Close"

A black and white photograph taken close-up of a side entry of a gothic-style cathedral. Front and center is the doors of the entry way, in front of which are two people that might be about to go inside. Two massive pillars are on either side of the doors, a large collection of ornate windows are above them.

St Giles' Cathedral, Edinburgh, Scotland

A black and white photograph of a large group of people standing scattered around a street. Most of the people are looking with interest at something just off of the left side of the frame. On the far side of the people is a wall of old stone buildings.

Some shots from my first time using Ilford FP4. Maybe a little too flat out of the box for my taste, but it pretties up real nice in post and the detail is fab #film #photography #filmphotography #landscape #ashevillenc

A close-cropped black and white photograph of a building storefront. In the center is decorative art deco stonework on the facade, just to the left of an entryway advertising cocktails. A table and chairs are on the bottom, and a few fronds from a short palm jut out from the left edge.

A black and white photograph of a foreboding liminal space. The focus on the bottom left are a few steps bathed in light, their lips worn down from a century of people climbing them. The rest of the frame is dark, but suggests a landing and a companion staircase.

A black and white photograph of a forest stream. Taken from almost water height, the opposite bank and trees on it tower over the image, and are also reflected in the still water. The dark reflections are mottled by fallen leaves floating on the water.

A black and white photograph of a tree sitting on the edge of a river bank, taken from below ground level. The tree’s root system has been exposed by erosion, turned into a gnarled network of roots that have been strengthened into structural members.

A few frames from the latest batch of development. Ilford HP5 120 #film shot on a Minolta Autocord. The contrast wasn't as punchy out of the tank as I like so I'll probably stick to Tri-X for my 400 shooting. #photography #filmphotography #ilford #hp5 #asheville

A black and white photograph of a series of large, gnarly live oak trees. The trees fill most of the frame, with a sidewalk running around them.

A spooky black and white photograph of a hallway. The hallway is intermitantly lit and in shadow as the architecture of the walls blocks the ceiling lights.

A black and white photograph of a city scene, taken above the ground. The focal point of the photo is a wood power pole and the various lines coming to and from. Around and behind it are a few buildings, with a forested hill in the far distance.
