oilprint - anyone?

[Whiteymorange]

The Unblinking Eye site has a lot about pigment printing as well as Bromoil. I was looking for a workshop in the northeast US for these techniques earlier this year - no luck.
David Lewis gave one last week at Photographers' Formulary out in Montana but my budget suffered a nervous breakdown as soon as I mentioned going.

Next year...maybe?

I'm interested in using the original print as a master for transfer printing as well. I've even got a press! I just can't seem to make the process work without the experience of going through it with someone who actually knows what he/she is doing.

my girlfriend and I just started trying the oilprint process...

for some reason it seems that my twin brother might be the only on in the world that does this now...:-)
that can't be true..

anyone in here?

mind you: I am talking about the original oilprinting - not the bromoil which everybody seems to be doing...

Hi Emil, nice to see you on APUG
I wrote you a couple of months ago, but you didn't answer...

if you're interested I can send you some recipe and instructions I have in my books (rawlins oil print and many other processes) - write me an email and I will send some scan

I'm experimenting with cyanotypes right now; I want to try one process at the time. But I will soon start printing in rawlins oil too. As for the "oleoprint" process there's this specific guide on Alt.Photo.com http://www.alternativephotography.co..._oilprint.html
but you should already know that

thanks for that link - interesting, and it seems that we are not the only ones doing this..
beautiful images too..
thanks again..

(I'm sure, if you came to Denmark, my brother would be glad to give you tutoring in this technique..)

Ah, Denmark... By next year I may be ready. If I make it that far I'll at least stop by for a look at your work! Who knows?

Do you have a copy of "Photographic facts and Formulas" By Wall and Jordan(1940 edition)? It has a lot of infomation (formulas and techniques) for pigment processes(Oil,Bromoil, and Transfer)on pg.s 214-224. There are several inexpensive copies on ABE books(http://www.abebooks.com/).
