If there is no one local to give you a tutorial, then I think you can get started (assuming basic English language understanding) with John Coffer's manual and DVD set:

http://www.johncoffer.com

It is VERY informative and the videos allow you to visualize what he is explaining, just like a tutorial (though obviously not interactive).

You may also visit the collodion forum at www.collodion.com There is a LOT of useful information there. Use the "search" feature (but be sure to set the date parameter to unlimited because the default is 6 months. On the forum, I think you will find good information for suppliers of materials/chemicals in Europe, including Italy.

Hey Ed,

Have you heard of "Quinn Jacobson" forum for "historic" collodion process?

I only ask because I mostly communicate through my phone not on my computer and sadly the collodion forum doesn't seem to be on the list that uses the "talkatap" or "forum runner" apps I use... :(

Hi Stone. Yes, I think those are one and the same forum. Quinn also has excellent teaching materials available, although I have not myself used them.

Bravo on both, but #2 is really, really nice. I wish she's been elevated a little so that the wall/floor boundary wasn't distracting me, but I like it anywho. Nice work...

Tom, very nice work.

Just to let you know, you need to replace the "@" in your site url you have listed here with a "." otherwise it doesn't go to your site.
