He has since perfected and added to his technique evolving his entire craft into an exploration of the capabilities of this classic medium.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eKerik grew up with photography, helping to build a darkroom in his parent’s basement in his early teens. He moved into large format cameras and sheet film in the late 1980’s and began working with platinum\/palladium in 1990. Platinum printing is a contact printing process, limiting the print size to that of the negative. For larger prints, this means either using a large format original negative or making digitally enlarged negatives. Kerik now works primary with digital cameras (including his iPhone) and makes digital negatives, but also uses 8”x10” and 7”x17” formats when the mood to shoot film strikes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eThe platinum\/palladium medium has a much different look than gelatin silver. The prints tend to be somewhat softer in appearance and are effused with delicate midtones and a gentle glow. Since 2001, Kouklis has been using a ‘gum-over’ process that adds hue and depth to his prints. This process involves printing one or more layers of gum bichromate over the platinum image using the same negative. With a subject matter that tends toward the ethereal, utilizing fog and gentle light situations, the addition of tint accentuates the moodiness of an image. \u003ca style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\" title=\"Kerik Kouklis Bio\" href=\"https:\/\/www.anseladams.com\/kerik-kouklis-cv\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRead More\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eOrdering Information\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eOriginal photographs are hand-made\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eContact us for other size options\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eSpecial orders from the photographer may take 4 to 6 weeks for delivery\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003ci\u003ePlease contact us at \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ca style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\" href=\"mailto:info@anseladams.com\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003e\u003ci\u003esales@anseladams.com\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003ci\u003e if you have any questions about shipping and delivery.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003ePrint Information\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eImage Size 8 x 12\", Matted size 16 x 20\"\u003cbr\u003eImage Size 12 x 18\", Matted size 22 x 28\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eImages of framed artwork are for illustration purposes only\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kerik Kouklis","offers":[{"title":"18x12\"","offer_id":50015302746371,"sku":"1719218","price":1250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0114\/3154\/2848\/files\/mountain-peak-iceland-infrared-shoprepresentedartist-kerik-kouklis-461861.jpg?v=1793055389","url":"https:\/\/www.anseladams.com\/products\/mountain-peak-iceland-infrared","provider":"The Ansel Adams Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
