“The World of Inkjet Papers Seminar” by Freestyle

Freestyle Photographic Supplies is bringing their World of InkJet Papers Seminar to Art Intersection.

“The World Of Inkjet Papers – Success or Failure… The Print Matters!” presented by Eric Joseph, Senior VP at Freestyle, will educate you on every brand of inkjet paper available from RC to Canvas. You will understand how to match the right paper to your unique image. Unlike any other seminar, you will walk away from this with the knowledge you need to enhance and excel your printmaking skills. If you’ve ever wanted advice on what inkjet paper to use from an industry insider and expert, this is your chance.

This is a one-of-a-kind seminar and applies to photographers, printmakers, graphic designers and artists of all levels! The focus of this seminar is to get participants to understand how important The Print really is and to realize that we truly can have a personal bond and relationship with inkjet papers the same way we had with traditional darkroom papers.

Showing over 100 individual photographs from Eric Joseph’s personal collection, he will discuss the technical points and aesthetic differences of every inkjet paper available from the following brands: Arista-II, Arista Americana Collection Inkjet Fabric, Awagami, Canson, Hahnemuhle, Ilford, Moab and Museo. Participants will gain keen insight into the technical aspects, myths and mysteries of digital printing through both lecture and interactive participation. Any and all questions are welcome.
