Beast of burden: 4 layer color print- cyanotype (C), inkjet (M), gum (Y) and palladium (K) on Cot320
Got some fringing in the trees and leaves from misregistration. Inkjet magenta layer was printed first, the c-type (Ware’s new cyanotype), then palladium (Ziatype) with quick size and a final PY 151 gum bichromate pass. Separations made from digital negatives. All borders masked except zia. Would really like to find an alt processes for magenta- maybe lumen print? Chrysotype? Not quite funky enough with the inkjet layer- almost looks like a straight inkjet with a fake sloppy border.
Still, not quite done with the profiling- c-type and zia curves are a bit off- you can see some magenta poking through in the neutral grays of the sidewalk. Also, I still need to figure out why I ever wanted to make such a thing.
