Congratulations Kate. Very nice work. What kind of paint did you use in
your gum prints?
I used to use Winsor & Newton watercolour paints but I switched to
Maimeri brand last year as they are much more concentrated.
I noticed that in some of them you used orange instead of
magenta; did I see it right?
Good observation - I like burnt Sienna as red and am going to try
another red or two - I'm not really interested in accurate colour
representation most of the time...more the atmosphere of the work.
Could you share with us some information about
your sizing method (or any sizing at all), or whether you had to deal
with
stain?
I size with gelatine because I don't seem to be able to find a paper
that I like that will print without some pigment stain (and I find this
varies with different pigments and is totally unpredictable).

What about the film you used? Was it done digitally on an inkjet
printer?

Yes, I do print digitally. I still have a lot of wrinkles to sort out
with density but I'm getting there slowly. I have an Epson C40UX believe
it or not, with 3-colour inks (cringe), but have been able to produce
quite adequate negs for gum. I must emphasize that any faults in density
etc are purely because I'm still learning how to tune negs for gum and
also how to print for different tonal emphasis.

 Thanks for the feedback,

Kate

Dear everybody, I do, do apologize for sending you a bad url....I had
just spent hours and hours getting the damn website up & running so
perhaps that's some excuse????

Thanks to all who have commented on my work, it's great to get the
feedback. I have fixed some problems with the "works on paper" pages so
if you feel inclined, go and have a peek.
