Platinum Printing Workshop, Tillman Crane, Nov 6-8, Florida

[doughowk]

Tillman Crane will be conducting a Platinum/Palladium Workshop this Fall at Daytona Beach State College, Florida. From the course description:

We will work with the NA2 platinum/palladium printing process. Topics to be covered include: paper choices, image color, contrast controls, basic hand coating methods, use of step wedges and sensitometry and masking techniques. By attending this workshop beginner platinum printers will be knowledgeable to work independently making platinum prints in your own darkroom. The more experienced platinum printer can use this workshop to build on their skill set and problem-solve printing issues.

There will be a public lecture Nov 5th, with the workshop itself starting Friday evening, Nov 6th; and continuing thru Sunday.
Workshop cost: Tuition $500 w $50 lab fee. Students to acquire on their own the Bostick & Sullivan kit
For more information and how to register, visit Tillman Crane's website ( to be updated shortly)

This is an exciting opportunity for those who live nearby as well as any "snowbirds" who are looking for a great vacation package in sunny Florida.

I took it three years ago. One of the best workshops I have ever taken.

I'll second that emotion...Tillman is one of the best platinum printers out there
we did 12 hour days at my workshop and I never heard him say anything about closing shop or it's time to quit...what a great excuse to go to some nice weather and learn something at the same time!!!
Best, Peter

It appears that we are only 1-2 people short of having the necessary minimum registrants for this workshop in Florida. So, if you've been procrastinating for various reasons, don't wait much longer for registration is open till only the end of September. This should be a great opportunity for both beginners and experienced platinum/palladium printers.

Well here's another post to say, just do it. I too was in the course with Louie and Peter in Peter's Valley, NJ. Hi guy's.

I've taken two classes with Tillman at the Valley. Great teacher, wonderful people.

We need 6 registrants for the course, and we're up to 5. So help us make this a go and sign up for a very informative workshop. It will also encourage Daytona State to consider more workshops for the future.

You guys fly me out there and I'll take it.
