PRINT PRICES

2012 prices are $900 for silver prints, $350 for carbon pigment ink prints, and $250 for color ink prints, regardless of size. They are signed and numbered on the back, and corner mounted without adhesives to acid-free window mats. The prices of the ink prints will increase as the editions begin to run out. These prices will be the same whether you buy from me or from a gallery. I can have the work framed for you if you like. Please inqure by email.

PRINT DETAILS

The gelatin silver prints are made with old formula Eastern European chlorobromide papers, toned in combinations of selenium, sulfides, and gold. If stored and displayed properly they should last hundreds of years. Because of the complexitiy of the toning process I limit the editions to ten or fewer. The papers are no longer made, so there will be no future editions.

Some images are only available as ink prints. I print all new black and white work with a digital multi-ink inkjet process called Piezography. This process, invented by Jon Cone of Cone Editions, uses several separate carbon pigment inks applied to matte-finish art papers. The image on these prints is made of carbon, and the paper base is a 100% cotton fiber stock, made by a German company that has been producing artist’s papers since the Renaissance. These prints should have longevity at least equal to the silver prints. If an ink print fades or discolors for any reason I will replace it.

For many of my images, the ink process is the best I've ever used. Because I can make these prints in larger editions (I limit them to 20) I can sell them for less. The price difference between these and the silver prints is a reflection of rarity, not quality.

The color work is printed on the same cotton fiber papers, using an eight-color pigment ink process. This is among the most lightfast color printing processes available. Editions are limited to 20.

PRINT SIZES

Most prints range from 4 x 5 inch contact prints to 9 x 11.5 inch enlargements. A few of the Chicago images are printed smaller; a few of the Southwest images are larger. The color work is printed 11 inches square. The web portfolios on this site will give some sense of relative print sizes. Please contact me to find out the exact size of any print that interests you.

LICENSING
