Van Dyke Brown Photography Workshop with Jill Enfield

Explore the beauty of historic photography during the Van Dyke Brown Photography Workshop with exhibiting artist Jill Enfield at the Albrecht-Kemper Museum of Art.
This special one-day workshop introduces participants to Van Dyke Brown printing, an alternative photographic process known for its rich, warm brown tones and beautiful tonal range.
Jill will guide participants through the process from negative to finished print. Students will learn how to prepare and coat watercolor paper with a light-sensitive solution, expose images using UV light, and properly wash, fix, clear, and dry their finished prints.
The workshop will begin with selecting and preparing negatives suitable for alternative-process printing. Participants will create test prints before working toward their final images, with the goal of completing one or two Van Dyke Brown prints by the end of the day.
This workshop is a great opportunity for photographers interested in alternative processes as well as anyone curious about historical photographic techniques. Participants will leave with hands-on experience and the knowledge needed to continue experimenting with Van Dyke Brown printing on their own.
Lunch and some workshop supplies are included.
