you never wrote me, you never called








my latest series of work. these are pinhole photographs printed on ceramics. it was a pretty crazy process. first i made a pinhole camera out of clay... and then i painted liquid light onto fired ceramic tiles and exposed those tiles in my camera. this is what i got! the sepia color you see are the colorations of the clay itself. this last one is my favorite, the image is so faint and ghostly.

these are outstanding, i never knew this could be done. i would love to try it out myself, would you mind me using the process? how can liquid light be bought? did you discover it yourself? your blog is a real inspiration. i have no patience to upload pictures of my work (i'm studying fine art), and your pieces are so wonderful. thank you.

This is AMAZING. I never knew you could do something like this and I especially loved reading about how you do it. They look so eerie and ghostly. Beautiful in every way.
