Saturday & Sunday

August 15 & 16

10 AM - 6 PM

Class Size Max: 6

This intensive, hands-on workshop introduces participants to the beautiful practice of layering platinum palladium prints with gum bichromate watercolor pigments for additional depth and tone. Open to both beginners and those with prior experience in platinum printing, the course provides strong foundations in the process while offering the opportunity for more advanced experimentation with layering and color.

Students will begin by learning the basics of making a digital negative from a digital file, followed by instruction in preparing platinum-palladium chemistry, coating, exposing, and developing prints. The second day focuses on learning to mix and apply color gum bichromate pigments over platinum prints to build dimension and produce final prints. Students will leave with a solid understanding of the materials and workflow to continue printing independently.

All materials are provided. Print size is limited to 8 x 10.

Tuition includes a $125 materials fee
