B & W Darkroom Print

5x7 matted 8x10 darkroom print

This 5x7 print was made in my darkroom using light and hand drawn overlays. It will arrive in a white 8x10 mat in a plastic sleeve.

What is a darkroom print?
“Photos are taken using silver halide light sensitive films in cameras. The films are then processed in a darkroom and prints are made from the negatives in a darkroom. A machine called an enlarger projects light through the negative onto light sensitive silver halide paper to make the print.”

I find creating dark and moody images and photograms in my darkroom to be a captivating and therapeutic process.
Photograms are a form of cameraless photography where objects are placed directly onto photosensitive paper and then exposed to light.

I often find myself mixing various processes when making a single image.
