6/26/2012 0 Comments Dinosaur tintypeThis image is the end result of a 'you build it' dinosaur bones kit. First the dino bones, uh little wood pieces :), were fitted together. Then he was all ready for his tintype portrait. I plated this image to brown aluminum to warm up those brittle dino bones. Just for fun! Happy Tuesday!

I'm the worst with plants. I have an "everyone gets hit with the hose" philosophy of watering the plants in my garden. So the likely hood that this dear orchid will survive in my hands for very long is quite slim. Luckily this version will last forever! This plate was made with blue aluminum and exposed in camera to create an 8x10 tintype.

This image originated as a digital file and was uploaded to my shop. Click here to get started making a digital tintype of your own! You can also restore your old paper family photographs permanently by turning them into digital tintypes, preserving your precious memories with metal photographs. I get at least one phone call a week asking about photographic restoration. I have been restoring tattered faded old photographs for over a decade, first creating a newly repaired negative and then a new photograph to replace the damaged original. I now encourage clients to make their restorations to tintypes so that their images will last for generations, and memories of loved ones can be preserved permanently.
This group of tintypes are a part of a larger mosaic piece entitled eat blueberries. The individual tintypes measure 5"x7".
On Saturday I hosted a tintype workshop at my studio. The video below is a slideshow of the day and the tintypes and ambrotypes that were made. We used a variety of different colored glass and metals to make our tintypes, and we exposed using miniature and toy cameras. It was a fun day and for five new tintypers, a successful first venture into wet plate collodion photography. |
