SCAM ALERT: We’ve had many reports of scammers impersonating Handmade Arcade and inviting people to apply for markets, book hotel rooms, and more. Please note that official Handmade Arcade communications will only ever come from an email address ending in @handmadearcade.org. Thank you!
Photos by a Carpenter is the tag line for Archie Carpenter , Photographer. Just over an year ago I discovered creating monotypes also known as monoprints using a process that incorporates a Gel Printing Plate , where I take an image I have photographed and transferring it first to a plate using paint and then to paper, resulting in a unique image that cannot be reproduced. This medium has given me the opportunity to revisit images I photographed at the beginning of my career as well as newly create photos from assignments or iPhone photographs and everything in-between.
