Fine Art Prints
Unique and exquisite handmade photographs by Thomas Brummett
About the Prints: Most of my images start as silver gelatin prints made in the darkroom using brushes, bleaches and toners via an entropic process I have refined over the years. The "one of kind" images are then printed in small editions on 100% rag paper using 100 year archival inks. Editions are signed and numbered. There are 10 bodies of work that fall under the title "Rethinking the Natural" which are: Animalis, Nocturne, Desert, Diatoms, Nature Morte, Light Projections, Infinities ,The Murmur of a Thousand Suns, as well as two new series titled, Halos and River which are part of the 2022 Exhibition, This Shimmering World.
