This is a three-day introductory workshop where students will learn the basics of Palladium printing. Palladium printing is also referred to as Platinum or Platinum/Palladium printing sometimes. This is a hand-coating process which requires patience and a consideration for details. Though it is time consuming, the basics of the process are rather simple, and the rewards for pulling a good print out of a tray are tremendous.
Since this is a contact-printing process, class will cover the making of enlarged negatives tailored for the process. In addition, students will use their own large format negatives as well as medium format negatives. All the materials for the class are included.
