Screen printing may be adapted to printing on a variety of materials, from paper, cloth, and canvas to rubber, glass, and metal. Artists have used the technique to print on bottles, on slabs of granite, directly onto walls, and to reproduce images on textiles which would distort under pressure from printing presses.
Media, or mediums, are the core types of material (or related other tools) used by an artist, composer, designer, etc. to create a work of art. [1] For example, a visual artist may broadly use the media of painting or sculpting, which themselves have more specific media within them, such as watercolor paints or marble.
Art photography print types refers to the process and paper of how the photograph is printed and developed. C-Print / Chromogenic Print: A C-Print is the traditional way of printing using negatives or slides, an enlarger, and photographic paper—through a process of exposure and emulsive chemical layers. Chromogenic color prints are composed ...
Advertisement for Ansco Cyko photographic paper, 1922. Photographic paper is a paper coated with a light-sensitive chemical, used for making photographic prints.When photographic paper is exposed to light, it captures a latent image that is then developed to form a visible image; with most papers the image density from exposure can be sufficient to not require further development, aside from ...
Photographic printing is the process of producing a final image on paper for viewing, using chemically sensitized paper. The paper is exposed to a photographic negative , a positive transparency (or slide ) , or a digital image file projected using an enlarger or digital exposure unit such as a LightJet or Minilab printer.
Chromogenic materials use dye couplers to form colour images. Modern colour negative film is developed with the C-41 process and colour negative print materials with the RA-4 process. These processes are very similar, with differences in the first chemical developer. The C-41 and RA-4 processes consist of the following steps:
Platinum prints, also called platinotypes, are photographic prints made by a monochrome printing process involving platinum.. Platinum tones range from warm black, to reddish brown, to expanded mid-tone grays [clarification needed] that are unobtainable in silver prints.
The gelatin silver print is the most commonly used chemical process in black-and-white photography, and is the fundamental chemical process for modern analog color photography. As such, films and printing papers available for analog photography rarely rely on any other chemical process to record an image.
