JEFFREY CONLEY – ABOUT HIS WORK

"My prints are made in a darkroom utilizing the platinum method, a 19th century hand-made print making process evocative of alchemy. Each unique print is hand-coated with a hand-mixed emulsion formula featuring platinum and palladium metals. Platinum prints are considered among the most permanent of the photographic print making processes due to the incredible stability of the platinum group of noble metals. The prints are characterized by an exceptionally long and delicate range of velvety tones and a warm image color.
I feel that the platinum process bestows a radiant shine, and the resultant prints possess a distinctive luminosity."
