Platinum Prints from Gallery Obscura
Inside the Garden Isle New Work African Portraits Archives Thoughts and Methods
The essence of my photography resides in the final print, an authentic and archival object to see, to hold, to frame and to hang. Working exclusively in platinum/palladium, hand coated on heavyweight watercolor paper, I combine technologies that bridge photographic practices from the 19th into the 21st century. The hand crafting I devote to each print individually melds the most basic elements of art and science into a uniquely tendered archival photograph.

I produce my work in limited editions of platinum/palladium prints that are available directly from me at Gallery Obscura or from selected galleries and dealers. Prices vary but many prints currently sell for $200. Insured shipping in North America is $20. Selected prints are also available from Jay A Martin, Inc, Fine Images, San Francisco, from Light Box Photographic Gallery, Astoria, Oregon and through The Photo Continuum Online Gallery.
