Our New State of the Art Hands-on Lab With these desires in mind, I have assembled the equipment to teach printing and digital photography the way I think it ought to be done, with solid information, great facilities and careful feedback, proper lighting, time and thought. We successfully premiered this new capability in March and are looking forward to using it in a variety of workshops. We continue these offerings with our April 27-30 Fine-Art Digital Printing Hands-On Workshop.

Fine-Art Digital Printing: A Hands-on Workshop April 27-30, 2006 plus new date added: June 22-25, 2006 This 4 day workshop focuses exclusively on Fine-Art Digital Printing, primarily using Epson inkjet printers. Concentration will be on inkjet printing with color pigments and black/gray ink combinations on coated and rag papers. Learn from the digital pioneer how he obtains his impressive results during four days of lectures and printing in the studio. We will cover workflow issues, color management, correcting color casts, adjustment layers, custom profile generation, editing and inspection. There being no magic bullet to making good prints, the workshop will also explore old fashioned testing, careful color judgments and interactive honing in on the best print possible. Steve and his assistants will work with you to tune your printing into the vision you have of what it should be, always guiding you toward asking the most of the media. Each student will have their own 13x19 desktop printer, as well as network access to large-format printers. Paper will be supplied by Hahnemühle and Epson.   |

NEW PRODUCT Hahnemühle Museum Etching “I've long wanted a 100% cotton-fiber fine-arts white paper with a traditional printmaking surface of some texture and substance. After long discussions as to the kind of paper I needed, Hahnemühle has now made a great implementation of those qualities in their new Museum Etching Digital Fine-Art Paper. It is 100% rag, a good weight of 350gsm, no optical brighteners, a stable coating and a subtle, rich surface. There is no evident linting and it profiled well on the first try. I've been using the White Etching for all of my Fine-Art prints for galleries and individual collectors and in my Digital Printing classes to much acclaim. It's a very beautiful paper.” -Stephen Johnson |
