Perhaps it would not be inappropriate to mention that I have done a fair amount to promote carbon transfer printing this year. Not to be confused with Fresson/direct carbon, of course.

In any event, at the beginning of the year I published a long technical article in the on-line magazine Magncchrom. Volume I Issue 3, and in Volume 1 Issue 4 there is a gallery of some of my carbon work. You can download both issues at http://www.magnachrom.com/Issues.php
Sandy, is there some special incantation or combination to apply after you get to http://www.magnachrom.com/Issues.php ???? I tried & got nowhere, very disappointed. I don't think I'm going to essay carbon printing (tho I've learned never to say never) but I'm very eager to see your carbons, and at this point feeling very deprived.

ESPECIALLY since.... Silvershotz Volume 4, Edition 3 "currently on the stands" does not seem to be on the stands in this vicinity. You say they'll soon be on Ed Buffaloe's website. Will you let us know -- or do I have to keep asking?

As for, "If Judy Seigel has a chance to look at the latest issue, Volume 4, Edition 3, which is currently on the stands, she may recognize one of the color images as I think she has seen it before," um, do you mean this Judy Seigel?

Since then I have published three articles in the UK based fine art photography magazine Silvershotz. The first two have monochrome galleries, and the third has three of my three-color carbon prints made some years ago. If Judy Seigel has a chance to look at the latest issue, Volume 4, Edition 3, which is currently on the stands, she may recognize one of the color images as I think she has seen it before.

King, Sandy. "Carbon Transfer Printing, Part 1 of 3," Silvershotz, Volume 4, Edition 1, 34-39.

King, Sandy. "Carbon Transfer Printing, Part 2 of 3," Silvershotz , Volume 4, Edition 2, 30-36.

King, Sandy. "Carbon Transfer Printing, Part 3 of 3," Silvershotz, Volume 4, Edition 3, 20-26.

A fourth article I wrote on color carbon will contain images by a number of contemporary color carbon masters. Included is work by Tod Gangler, John Bentley, Hans & Chia, Gerard Aniere (printing for another photographer). This number is forthcoming.

King, Sandy. "Color Carbon Printing," Silvershotz, Volume 4, Edition 4.

The article in Magnachrom, Volume 1, Issue 3, will soon be at Ed Buffaloe's site, www.unblinkingeye.com, together with a new gallery that will include some of the carbon images published in Silvershotz, some that were in the Magnachrom gallery, and some new ones.


All the best,
