Digital Printing

"This is the magnum opus on digital printing and the book to read before color calibrating your monitor or wondering about differences in pigmented and dye-based inks. With little in the way of “how-to,” the book focuses more on why and showcases eloquent photographs, including a heartbreakingly beautiful portrait of Marilyn Monroe, a naked World War II bomber tail gunner, and the inevitable “Emperor’s New Clothes” work. Equally heartbreaking for far different reasons is Henry Wilhelm’s essay “A History of Permanence” that includes a section called “The Totally Lost Kodacolor Era” that will leave you stunned by the corporate callousness that’s described. This book not only deserves to be on the bookshelf of anybody who cares about photography, it deserves to be read."  -- Joe Farace, Shutterbug

Most of us know him as one member of the band Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, but what you may not know is that at the same time Graham Nash was rocking the world, he was also pursuing a parallel career in photography and digital imaging. Nash Editions—the world’s premier fine-art digital printmaking studio, which Graham co-founded with R. Mac Holbert—represents the pinnacle of those efforts. This book uses thought-provoking essays and glorious artwork to sum up not only Nash Editions’ achievements but also the state of fine-art digital printmaking. After a brief history of printmaking, you’ll reach the heart of the book: an essay by Holbert on the genesis of Nash Editions and fine-art digital printing (which details the studio's interactions with major artists like David Hockney); an essay by MoMA consultant Henry Wilhelm (which includes a technical comparison of traditionally and digitally prepared prints); and commentary from Nash Editions artists. The book’s more than 100 illustrations include Nash Editions artwork, photos of artists in the studio, images of the machines used in digital printing, and illustrations of the proofing process.

Description #1 by Etsy - backthennishvintage:

Yeah..... so I love bold specs... I look for them in my everyday travels, and wonder if there are souls like me, who would wear what they want, with the one sole purpose of making themselves happy. I firmly believe in surrounding yourself with things that bring you joy. If being thick and bold does it for you, then come stand behind these. One of a kind, genuine geek hornrims, not too big, not too small. just the right size. These are vintage 1960's frames, in excellent, unused condition. Clean, heavy duty, 7 barrel hinges. In perfect working order. Frames are ready for your prescription. No lenses. Straightened and ready to try on. (that is not a scratch in the end of the earpiece, just a reflection) Aprox. Opthalmic measurements as follows: Frames measure 5" across, tip to tip ( about 127mm). Bridge DBL (distance between lenses) is 23mm. Distance between the bridge space is about 14mm. Measurements taken across the center of the frame. Lens width is aprox. (1 5/8") 42mm. Lens height is aprox. (1 1/16") 28mm. Inside hinge to hinge is 4 3/4" (122mm). Temple length is (5 1/2") 140mm, from hinge to end including ear bend. Pupil to pupil distance is (2 1/2") 65mm. Generally, full square specs look good on oval, long faces, like mine. I'm the gal in the photo. Though, I think these would look fine on a slightly rounder face. Narrower, rectangular specs look best on rounder faces. Please make sure your optician will happily fill your prescription, with frames you walk in with. I guarantee that my frames are optical quality. Experienced, seasoned opticians will know how to fill and adjust these frames properly. Online lens replacement labs are generally cheaper than brick and mortar eyeglass chain stores when it comes to filling your prescription. Kindly read my eyewear guide, under my shop policies, or follow this link. http://www.etsy.com/shop/BackThennishVintage/policy These frames are great quality, and feel good in your hands, comfortable, and are higher end acetates, that any optican would love to fill with a sunglass prescription, or your clear, everyday prescription. These would likely sell for about $300 in a high end optical shop. Comes with a protective case. REMEMBER~ Measure your own frames, and compare to my measurements for a sure fit, cause not all heads/eyeglasses are the same size :-)) I realize the difficulty of buying eyewear online. I am happy to model any pair, and give you some guidance. My vintage eyewear is returnable within 7 days of receipt. Your Homework assignment is: Ask for photographs of me wearing them, (if necessary). Please measure a pair of your own frames, to see if these will fit you, as not all heads are the same size. Print out this listing, and make sure your optician will put lenses into frames that you walk into their establishment with. Many are not taking kindly to this, as they will tell you just about anything, to get you to buy their own frames. If they tell you that they cannot do it, take these babes elsewhere, or send them to an online optical lab. Many online places will happily do it for less. I have a second business on the internet, selling reading glasses, and eyeglass frames, for 10 years, and I have heard it all, seen it all. Kindly read my store policies, as there may be information there, that pertains to your order. Domestic shipping includes delivery confirmation. International buyers welcome.... convo me for a shipping quote to your country.

We look high and low to understand your marketing niche and see who your competitors are, tailoring our research to your individual project. We review your questionnaire responses several times, research and brainstorm. 5.Then, the design process begins! Most concepts begin as rough sketches on paper. Often, other art mediums are implemented like india ink, watercolor, charcoal but it depends entirely on the project. Other times, illustrations and typography are built digitally first, depending on the needs of each individual client. 6. Once the design process has reach a point where the client's review is necessary, the design(s) will arrive in your email inbox with notes or questions regarding the design components. 7. You will review and make suggestions for improvement. 8. 3 rounds of revisions are included. What happens if 3 revisions are applied and the design still needs a few tweaks? No problem. Each additional revision is a flat rate of $35. 9.

Meredith listened to my ideas and then brought them to fruition and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. If you are looking for a designer who is organized, professional and skilled, I recommend her whole-heartedly! -Michele LoBosco, Author and Academic Coach Meredith is a true artist of her craft. Her professionalism and ability to understand individual and business needs made everything come together seamlessly. Her design encapsulated everything I imaged but could not articulate. Simply magnificent. -Vee Insixiengmay, Owner of Sentient Skin Salon I recently worked with Meredith to re-brand my business logo. Meredith's questionnaire was very in-depth and a good starting point for the initial designs. I cannot say I was the easiest client for her, as partly through the design process I asked her to take the designs in a completely new direction, but she was always very patient and receptive to my feedback. I am beyond pleased with the outcome of our collaborative effort and cannot recommend her highly enough! -Chelle Amaral, Owner of Mello Rose Photography

Photographic artists and students of alternative process photography will welcome this new edition of Christopher James' The Book of Alternative Photographic Processes. This significantly expanded edition is a full-color, lavishly illustrated, comprehensive resource that explores every aspect of alternative process image making. With his highly conversational writing style, James explores the techniques, processes, idiosyncrasies, history, and cultural connections that are such a significant part of the genre. Best of all, James makes it extremely accessible, providing clear instructions and practical workflow advice. The book delves into a vast menu of alternative and traditional options, among them: calotype, salted paper, cyanotype, argyrotype, chrysotype, POP, kallitype, ambrotype/wet collodion, Van Dyke, platinum/palladium, Ziatype, gelatin dry plate emulsions, carbon, gum bichromate, albumen, hand-applied emulsions, paper, alternative imaging systems, and digital negative production for alternative process image making. This book has become the unanimous standard reference text for alternative process photography, one that students love to read and work from. Not only does this definitive work make the most complex ideas easy to understand, it is conversational, comfortable, inspirational, and fun to read- a tremendous resource and a treasure trove of alternative process images. "The first edition was a stunning achievement, and one I felt that was not likely to be superceded. Five short years later Christopher James has created a very new work and a new standard. The Book of Alternative Photographic Processes: 2nd Edition is, by far, the best alternative photographic process book ever!" - Richard Sullivan, Founder and Co-Owner, Bostick & Sullivan "If I could only have one photography book this would be it." -Timothy Whelan, Photographic Books
