This six day intensive workshop is designed to introduce students to the beautiful, dynamic, and versatile world of gum bichromate printing. One of the earliest photographic printing processes, gum printing utilizes a contact negative to produce delicate, painterly images that use watercolor paint as the pigment of their emulsions. The basic process is quite simple and fun. Once learned, the process can be duplicated simply in a variety of environments without the requirement of a traditional darkroom. Gum printing also permits a high degree of artistic expression, as each practitioner can personalize his or her technique to best suit their needs.
