Hand-Painted Black & White
Oil paints especially made for photographs are applied
directly
to the print by hand, using cotton balls & Q-tips.
Colored pencils
are used for detailed areas. |
 |
Sepia
Black & white photographs are toned with a warm
brownish or
amber color, for a timeless or antique effect. |
 |
Soft
Edges
A filter is used that makes the edges fuzzy for a
"dreamy" look. |
 |
Diffusion
A slight soft focus is created with a filter - this smoothes out
imperfections. |
 |
Manipulated Polaroid
Polaroid
photos in which the print is rubbed by hand with a
burnisher-type tool, for an impressionistic effect.
These are
then enlarged -either as a laser print or as a
Cibachrome print
(now Ilfochrome), from a 4" X 5"
transparency. |
