While working in the darkroom developing and enlarging photographs, I accidentally grabbed a bottle of something other than a photochemical  and mixed it into a solution that I used immediately. I finished printing shortly after, frustrated by the appearance of patterns and bleeding that seemed to come from nowhere. When I turned on the white light I was absolutely shocked to see all the patterns and bleeding I had seen were in color! In a black and white photograph on black and white paper?!  I hated it for 2 seconds and have been in love with it since. This project is a collection of some of my early work and exploration using this technique.
