Rob Ryan example

This was first piece I did for my Typography Poster Project. First I designed what it would look like, displaying my name and my personality (I'm a guitarist and I like the Rolling Stones, which I based the design on). I then transferred the design on black paper and carved out the design using a craft knife. Finally, I took the carved paper into the Dark Room and put it under the enlarger on top of some photo paper. I exposed the light onto it for 3 seconds, then I placed it in the developer solution for a minute, the the stop bath for 30 seconds, the fixer for 5 minutes and then finally the sink for 10 minutes, then I left it to dry.
