Cardiff by the Sea based painter,
photographer and printmaker
Raymond Ellstad now finds himself
in the position of an iconoclastic
dinosaur. In his portraiture and figure
studies he continues to use film in
conflict with the current cherished
belief that digital is king. He also
continues to print in the traditional
dark room creating silver gelatin
prints on archival, double weight,
fiber based papers.
To his mind Silver is still the King.
In their depth and luminous quality
Silver Gelatin Prints have no equal.
