Part 1
I'm making a little post about how I create some of my images today, I hope people will enjoy this little exercise. I'll be posting the final print once I'm done.
I first select a print I want to work with. Personally I like with prints made on RC coated photographic paper although I have used fiber based papers for this as well. Ink jet papers and there inks used with digital print don't hold up to the torture I put the print through.
So I have the print picked out I'll also need water, charcoal, cotton balls, and paper towels.
Next I use the cotton ball to wet the print so it's damp but not soaking wet.
After the print is damp I crush up charcoal and sprikle it on the print.
