Hello Andrea, again, after several
years,
Jose Ortiz Echague's prints were mostly made using full size paper
negatives produced long before computers were ever thought of.
Early in his career Echague was using a 6 X 9
cm camera so I suppose he would have contacted the original neg from the camera
with other film, probably ortho, to make a positive tranny which could
then be enlarged onto the paper to give a full size paper
neg.
Unusual, though, that you are working with Carbon Transfer and paper
negs and what great results you have achieved. Echague's prints, as
you may know, were made on Direct Carbon paper.
Having read some of your w/s may I wish you the potential to rise out of the threatening housing problems you
describe so you may keep your creative workspace and carry on making
pictures.
Sincere best wishes.
