Making your own printing paper?

Recently I saw an article in a photo mag. on making your own printing paper with 'Liquid Light(?)'. Later I mensioned the article to my wife, and she said could I get her a copy of the mag. or the article. I've been to the bookstore twice looking for the mag. Does anyone know the name of the mag. or know of an alternative web site?

Thanks

Do a search on "Alternative Photographic Processes". You should get

a few hits that lead you in the right direction.

Check out www.photoformulary.com this is a great source for AP.

<p>

Also look for a book titled "Keepers of the Light" a history and

working guide to AP.

<IMHO> 'Liquid Light' is ok to get started in making your own

papers. But for serious work you probably should think about making

your own emulsions.

Luminos Solver Print gets the nod, I believe in the "roll-your-own"

category as has more contrast adjustment ability. Another good tome

is "Silver Gelatin" by Martin Reed & Sarah Jones, Amphoto books,

1996, ISBN 0817458859

Chadolious Jarvis Maximus has a few articles on do-it-yourself paper,

including albumne (first take 3 dozen eggs, seperate the yolks from

the whites....) on his site

I believe the article you're looking for was in Shutterbug.

In fact, a home made albumen print of San Francisco de Assis is going

to be in an exhibit starting next week at the Plano Art Center,

Plano, TX. Albumen is considerably more involved than Liquid Light,

but I couldn't resist the shameless self-promotion (now that Mr.

Yates has brought it up). Liquid Light is kinda cool because you can

use it on paper, glass, stone, ceramic, etc.In fact, a home made

Liquid Light isn't the only game in town. Cachet and Luminos both have

variable contrast liquid emulsions...

Thanks for all the responces. I guess I should have added that my

wife is a non camera kind of photo person. The article was sort of

cool in that it aproched the topic from a photo-101 stance. I know it

wasn't shutterbug, Popular photo, or View camera(?, I bought that one

for an article on paper negatives).

The article you are looking for is in the Photo Techniques Sept/Oct

2000 issue. In that issue there are two articles: "Hand Coating

Liquid Emulsions" and "The Art of Hand Colloring."
