Thank you for your support online and in person this year! I’m excited to make more rad #tintype portraits next year, maybe make some giant plates, and definitely involve more ropes in the coming year 😈. . . . . . . #topnine #topnine2018 #blkkhand #handmade #makeportraits #shibari #shibariart #mnart #mnartist #mnphotographer #fineartphotography #conceptualphotography #conceptualart https://www.instagram.com/p/BsD8ctVlpNC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fjqjjkbiolng

That’s a wrap for this year! Last pop-up in the bag, have a couple tintype sessions booked for this Wednesday (I have time for ONE more session at 3pm if you want to DM me to snag it, tintypes won’t be ready for Christmas though!), but otherwise it been a really productive year for #blkkhand! Over 300+ portraits made this year, not counting tintypes I’ve made for personal art projects. That’s so crazy to me! Thank you to each an every one of you who has had their portrait made, supported me, or had a kind word for me. I’m still trying to grow this and myself all the time, so thank you for being along this ride with me and supporting my art making. This pic is me at the opening of #postpatriarcalfeminism show that opened on Saturday at @coexhibitions , soo cool to be included in this show and to show these pieces all together! Feeling grateful and blessed 🙏🏽 . . . . . . . . . #tintype #wetplate #wetplatecollodion #handmade #fineartphotography #conceptualphotography #conceptualart #artistsoninstagram #mnphotographer #mnartist (at CO exhibitions) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrgofP5F05H/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11l26q60djadr

Hey! Northern Grade is tomorrow! 11-7pm Saturday and then 11-5pm on Sunday. THIS IS MY LAST POP-UP OF THE YEAR! So come get these tintypes! 5”x7” portraits for $80+tax. First come first served. If I’m not super busy I might be able to squeeze in an 8”x10” portrait ($120+tax), but it depends on if I’m swamped or not. I’ll also have physical gift certificates available to buy if you’d like to gift a session. See you there! . . . . . . . . . #tintype #wetplate #wetplatecollodion #handmade #blkkhand #northerngrade #modistbrewing #shoplocal #shopunique #supportsmallbusiness #mnartist #mnphotographer #melaninpoppin (at Modist Brewing Company) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrZCZr4FB9r/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1co1mlakxg65r
