Re: Palladium on vellum
Very interesting Marek, congrats & thanks for sharing. I prefer the gold
one -> suits the subject matter better IMHO. I also want to try that!
That's if I manage to find such a transparent paper which is able to take
wet processing (+ is chemically compatible with iron processes).
I may try to process Masa paper (which is easier to work with than your
vellum I presume) in sulfuric acid to make it more transparent -> if I'm
not mistaking that's how they produce translucent / semi-transparent
paper. Anyone with details about this?
Regards,
Loris.
