North Yorkshire Open Studios 11

I am currently exhibiting my first carbon exhibition print at The South Street Gallery during the North Yorkshire Open Studios.

The print on display is part of my ‘Celebrating Place’ project photographing the trees of North Yorkshire. During the event I was also making carbon pigment paper, which will be used to make future carbon prints.

Next Saturday 18th June at The South Street Gallery, I will be developing a carbon print at 3.30pm. This is a great opportunity to witness a live demonstration of a Victorian process.

8×20 inch Carbon Print

I made my first ever  8×20 inch Carbon print last week, which is now on exhibition at The South Street Gallery as part of my North Yorkshire Open Studios work in progress. This is the result of a 2 way exposure made in the field of my tree subject, photographed with my Deardorff and my 24inch repro claron.

This is the print in the final stages of development just before it was washed ready to dry.
