What is a RIP

Hi Martin, lovely Vidio, the way you show, and explain everything, is very relaxing and pleasing, keep up the good work, 📷

[michellerobertson]

Hi Martin, thank you for this video. I am an art student pursuing a BFA in photography and I'm experimenting with different types of paper. I love the effect that the Kozo had on your photo! Cheers!

You can put diffused light behind it. Nice.

An excellent demonstration of printing on washi. I too print on washi and find the results unique.

Thank you for showing this. A separate video on RIP software would be very much appreciated.

Just wonderful, thank you. This paper looks very sensual with great depth. I will sure give it a try. Dank you for showing how to do it!

[Mercsss]

Great informative video, so glad I’ve found your channel 👍👍

[TheBestDadForever]

Great video. Just wanted to mention that Bizan paper is also a good option. I think it pops more than Kozo, and Bizan is really hand made. It is however terribly expensive.

Great video. Love the effect you have with the rose.

Very cool process, thank you for sharing!

[tgchism]

You are the wizard Martin! Very nice!!

[carloseastman]

Excellent and well demonstrated, thank you! Problemsì seems to be of buying this paper from Epson.

I have always loved the oriental papers and they are very strong. It's a beautiful image as well. I would wonder how the dmax on the printed image holds up, though, since it is an inkjet. I like the framing idea, and might try this with an actual darkroom print as far as framing is concerned. The print would likely have to have a backing on it.

Thank you, great videos and tutorials. I can't seem to buy kozo on backing paper. What backing paper do you attach the kozo to please?

[bethgibson]

This video is fantastic! Your work is beautiful and I love this way of presentation. May I ask what brand of mounting taper you are using?

[AB.]

Very helpful. Thanks so much. Also can we leave the backing if we wanted for ease of framing for sale/exhibitions?

[PhotographyMacDonald]

Lovely! How do you attach the Kizo to the backing paper?

[Being_Joe]

This is really cool. Would this work on dye ink printers or would this only work with pigment printers?

[sandag]

Would you be able to recommend where is the best place to buy the Kozo paper ?
