Description
OK... this is a series using an experimental technique in the darkroom. The process goes like this: 1) Coat your face (or whatever other body part you like) with vaseline/petroleum jelly, 2) go into the darkroom with some unexposed photo paper and press/rub your face onto the paper, 3) come out of the darkroom and expose the paper to normal light momentarily, 4) take it back into the darkroom and develop the paper. The portions of the paper that had vaseline on them come out white, and the parts of the paper without it come out black. The vaseline blocks light from directly exposing the paper when taken into normal light.

The result is somewhat random, and often startling and/or creepy.

This is a 3-part series.

I added to the title, from descriptions given by . He nailed each one with a single word.
