Nude Self Portrait Collection
My self portraits are special moments in time. I get a lot of value out of the experience, and even if I were to have a mishap with the film or file, I would still very much get value out of it as an experience. My camera armada: My main rigs: Film Rigs
I offer small 8”x10” unlimited edition giclee prints for fans. For fans, prints are limited edition (generally 15) and printed at much higher quality and larger sizes. My current preferred sizes are: 16×20, 20×24 and 20×30. Bigger prints are indeed available, but I have not had the time to print each of my self portraits (there are about 150 now and I continue to shoot every week) at sizes above 20×30 for quality assurance, so larger printing might take a bit more turn around, as I want perfection.
Museum Quality prints: Fuji Crystal Archive Type “PD” Paper, a professional quality printing material only available through high end pro labs. Consumer labs do not have the equipment needed to print on this material. The company I use for these prints uses a state-of-the-art Chromira 5x ProLab printer. Fuji crystal Archive RA4 material IS considered to be a truly archival print by today’s standard. For what it is worth, Corbis and the other archives are using Crystal Archive for their long term storage of prints. Fuji Crystal Archive has been given the highest c-print material rating by Wilhelm Research with an average life of 75 years. Under dark storage up to 120 years. The actual life of course depends on display and ambient light but you’re safely looking at 25 – 35 years in an average home. These prints are much higher quality than the average giclee print you see advertised. My art means a lot to me, and I intend the work to last.
