ABSTRACT
When I wrote my first book in 2002, digital photography was still in its infancy. Photography was all about the darkroom and few people were saying digital would be taking over. Within a few years, schools began tearing down their darkrooms making way for digital “darkrooms.” Old timers were saying that is it – the end of the wet darkroom is here! Just like in the 1800s when photography was introduced to the public, painters were saying it was the end. But what has happened, both then and now, is that artists have adopted new ways of working so that old techniques could be folded into the new ones. I have included some wonderful work that brings together every tool by combining inkjet prints with alternative processes as well as striking montages.
