First layer on aluminum with acrylic + CaCO3 ground

[Loris Medici <mail@loris.medici.name>]

I did my fist layer on an aluminum sheet prepared by putting four layers
of acrylic + CaCO3 mixture (using a foam roller) plus a hardened 1.5%
gelatin layer. I didn't sand the ground -> for a more pictorial effect.
Also, I used a plain paper negative.

The layer coats and exposes very nicely. It needs a little more brushing
than paper, otherwise behaves pretty much the same. (Exactly as noted by
Keith before...)

I like much this media; will finish the print (taking notes), to get the
hang on the surface...

P.S. Keith, this is truly wonderful -> finally got my hands on something I
really really want to do! :) I'm sorting/selecting images like crazy ->
for lots lots of negatives/prints...
