The Grand Platinum Plan and Khun Veegood Print

Platinum-Palladium prints have a real unique beauty to them, a lovely character and softness.. They are different than any other photographic process I have tried.

Here is an 8x10 inch Pt-Pd print of Khune Veegood from THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE UNDER THE FREEWAY. Shot in Klong Toey slum Bangkok, Thailand, in 2022.

I have changed my grand plaitinum print plan once again. My hope now is to make 50 matted and framed 11x14 inch Platinum-Palladium works. 25 from THE FAMILIES OF THE DUMP and 25 from THE PEOPLE  WHO LIVE UNDER THE FREEWAY.

I will make 50 hand made frames for these prints. 

The idea is to have the two series completed and ready for exhibition, even thou I have no exhibitions scheduled! I have not even submitted work from the FREEWAY project.

Note* My longtern idea since I was a young man (25 or so) was to print the best photographs of my lifetime in archival editions before I die. This is part of that process.
