I agree. There's just something "abstracty" about a single layer gum print. Well done! What paper?

Cool! Never tried coating with baryta
ndg - Thank you!
I used plain paper for painting in water-colours.
Paint for offset printing.

So true Sandy. I wish a manufacturer could put out sized watercolor paper. Might be a niche product so it could be handled yearly in runs like Ilford does it with film.
Need some help here. This is our first attempt at a Kallitype print and we are seeing some bronzing in the shadows. My suspicion is the Ferric Oxalate. After looking a bit deeper it seems the formula for Kallitype is for a 20% mix, and we used Ferric Oxalate mixed for the NA2 P/P process. This was using a 5X7 negative and 15 drops of each, FE and Silver Nitrate 10% solution. Am I correct, or is there another culprit? Keep in mind this is our first try at this. By the by, this was shot with a brass barrel rapid rectilinear lens wide open, hence the blur and movement of the musicians.
Are you sure that the emulsion was completely dry before exposure? I'd say that it was not.
If ferric oxalate was the culprit, I think that the highlights would be fogged.
My suggestion is that you try again and wait till the emulsion is completely dry. You can use
a hairdrier, with the cold setting, to be sure.
Best,
Pau
Thanks Pau, I'm sure your right, since I was treating this like I might a P/P print and was not that concerned about complete dryness, as I would want a bit of humidity still in the paper. Next run will be done after completely drying the paper after coating.
