Paper Tests

Ok so I showed you some images this morning of dipping sheets of paper into a beet emulsion and I was testing not having them dry before printing on them. With a slightly overcast day  and about six hours exposure I received these images. Try to capture the texture in them, its really interesting.

Four sheets of paper were dipped, these papers were only dipped once and then a slice of an old potato was laid on them like the picture you saw in this mornings post.

So here we have....

Epson Enhanced Matte

Epson DuraBrite Glossy Photo Paper

Epson Velvet Fine Art Paper

Ilford Galerie Multipurpose Paper

Important to note that these images were not adjusted at all. These are their true colors. It will be interesting to see the difference between the double dipped papers and the ones that are dried and I will expose tomorrow. I will assume they will most likely need more time because the material will not be wet and absorbing the emulsion quicker.
