Catford Blue - Premium Lustre Print

Winter night in Catford, southeast London as seen from top deck of a London bus where a warm room emerges through the blueness of a passing emergency vehicle and the arse end of the Catford Cat silhouetted beyond. 

Epson Premium Lustre prints made by me in my studio using Photo Claria dye inks yielding dynamic, colourful and robust prints that will last generations if cared for properly. Each print is coated with two passes of UV and moisture protection fixative to achieve archival longevity. 

Photo Claria dye ink is often preferred over pigment ink for smaller prints, as it yields more dynamic colour with deeper saturation and contrast and is better suited to certain types of subject matter, such as mine. Modern dye inks are essentially archival as they are extremely stable and fade resistant these days. However, dye inks can be prone to moisture and UV damage, hence the formulated fixative application which negates this.
