Hi Dick,
YES Yes Yes to Santa FE , I am just putting out a call
for more info as I am sure I do not know everything
and want to be really well prepared for Santa Fe.
Also I am beginning a dissertation on the process, so
need to extend my paper from last year, already I have
had three great replies, for which by the way guys I
am incredibly thankful!!!!
The process you described is I assume using the
cornstarch as a carrier medium, it would work similar
to dilution, but be far more viscous. I would love to
find out more about it do you have any details?
The chemigram process has been hard to track as each
time it has been "rediscovered " it has been given a
new name by the user who has thought it was a new
discovery. Hence I have ten or eleven different terms
to search for. Also the boundaries extend in many ways
as many user do extend into toning, dyeing, C$41
chemistry additions, combining with traditional
printing, and many other combinations.
So far some of the names off the top of my head are
Chemigrams
Chemograms
Chimigrams
Chimmigrammes
Light Paintings
Solargrams
Lytescapes
Chromoskedasic Drawing
Duotone psedosolarisation
Photobatik
Fotobatik
chemofotograms
And I have discovered amazing artists such as Pierre
Cordier,Dominic Lam, Phil Winsor, Lloyd Godman,
Birgit Blyth, and many more
Also, the discovery proceses make for amazing reading
too.
I guess this will send folk out on searches and blow
my surprises for Santa Fe, but maybe if anyone here
has more, you will let me know so I can compile it.
Thanks to all who have replied to me personally,
Keep it coming plese!!!!!
