Join Me on Studio Q – Saturday, October 5, 2024
I’m excited to announce that I’ll be the featured guest on the Studio Q show this coming Saturday, October 5, 2024. During the show, I’ll be sharing my passion for creating calotype paper negatives, offering a glimpse into the timeless art of photography as pioneered by Fox Talbot. I’ll walk you through the original calotype chemistry and workflow, alongside showcasing some of my most recent works.
In addition to the technical aspects, I’ll delve into the creative narrative behind my projects and explain why I chose the calotype process as my medium to bring these stories to life. I’d love for you to join me and participate in this engaging discussion.

Studio Q Show Notes
Join Quinn on Saturday, October 5, 2024, at 1000 MST for another session of great conversation about existentialism and art.
This week we’re going to have an hour of “show and tell.” Tim Layton, from Tim Layton Photography, is going to join us and share some of his work with calotypes (paper negatives) and the projects he’s working on in service of his existential struggles. (https://timlaytonfineart.com/)
We’ll talk about his projects using the paper negative and address questions like, “In what ways do the ephemeral qualities of Calotypes (paper negatives) symbolize the human confrontation with mortality and the passage of time?”
The paper negative is like the human body—fragile and temporary, yet it holds the impression of a moment in time (remember Barthes philosophy?), much like our lives carry fleeting memories before they fade, degrade, and decay with age.
Bring your questions, comments, and concerns. It will be a great conversation, and you might even learn something.
