Re: Which fine art papers to use?

2007-05-01 by djon43

...You might consider whether you see yourself primarily as a
photographer or as a print maker. 

If you consider yourself a print maker, you may wish to consider what
other print makers used before inkjet...I'm thinking here of
lithographers, woodcut artists, engravers, silk screen artists etc.
Their papers are more akin to "fine art" photo papers than they are to
the papers used by people who see themselves primarily as photographers. 

Inkjet printing has approximated lithographic and seriograpic printing
(silkscreen) quite well for a long time, but has struggled to closely
approximate silver prints until fairly recently.
