Flora number 2. 2010.
These prints are Selectacolor on the back of fixed RC photo paper. Selectacolor has the potential to be really awesome if you have color separation negatives and tons of time on your hands. Also sizing of the paper is needed, or you have to print on a vinyl-type surface. The second image in contact printed from a litho, and the first is contact printed from drawings. This was my first experience with Selectacolor, and though I might prefer it to gum, the images seem much weaker than I really had intended. Like I said, with color separation negatives you could make some really awesome prints, otherwise as a one color process I personally think they fall a little flat, even compared to a really light cyanotype.
Hope you are enjoying all the recent activity friends!
