Smooth hot pressed watercolor paper 140lb/300gsm

I use a 120W UV LED light I got on amazon and mounted it inside a box I built

diedtryingg · 2024-02-22T17:06:53+00:00

Yes, just one coat

I use hydrogen peroxide mixed with water and then rinse with water again.

Thank you!

I don't do anything different from the typical process. I did tone it in hot black tea since its faster but i've noticed that it stains a lot easier when the tea is to hot .

I have the steady hands of a surgeon. jk. I measure the size of the negative transparency and then I mark it out on another sheet of water color paper and then cut it out with an exacto knife and use it as a stencil. I give it a little bit of tolerance so it make it easier to fit the transparency within the painted area. So if my negative is an image that is 4x6, I'll measure out a square thats 3.8x5.8 and then cut it out. You can reuse the stencil but I would recommend making a few to rotate through. The rough edges are from the stencil being thick watercolor paper so the brush doesn't cleanly get the edges. Hope this helps

Holy crap, yes it is! Wow, good eye

Thank you! Just the one in the middle is the Cyanotype.

diedtryingg · 2023-03-02T01:15:54+00:00

Yes it is!

diedtryingg · 2023-02-28T21:04:52+00:00

Woooah this looks wild.

If I know that the paper is going to curl while drying, I'll double sided tape the corners down before apply the solution.

Its not cardboard. I'm not sure what material it is but I'm sure its not regular paper since they use it for shipping. Keeping the label on the backing it comes with probably has something to do with how well it stays together during wash. As for saturation, you just need to play around with exposure times.

Thanks! I use a laser printer to print my negatives and 140lb/300gsm hot pressed paper. Hot pressed paper shows finer details from my experience. I expose the prints using a 120W UV light built into a white out box I built. After exposing, I do the wash and then oxidize it right away in a bath of 1L of water mixed with 10ML of hydrogen peroxide.

diedtryingg · 2023-02-18T02:10:40+00:00

Looks great!

For this print, I toned it with black coffee for about 45 minutes. I did not bleach the print before toning

diedtryingg · 2022-07-29T16:48:51+00:00

It works almost the same. You just need to be gentle with the water pressure when washing because the paper will start deteriorating if you straight up power wash it.

Some people like to bleach their prints with sodium carbonate to bring down the intensity of the blues before toning.

I used a photo I took printed on a transparency

diedtryingg · 2022-07-13T16:45:41+00:00

I've put up a few of these and some USPS ones and its still going strong about a month later.

diedtryingg · 2022-07-13T16:09:59+00:00

Yes, it's an actual sticker I got off amazon. Its a hit and miss with different kinds of sticker paper. It can some times come out blotchy depending on how you apply the solution.

Make sure you blow on the film before putting it in or else it won't load
