BACKPORCH

Instead of the picture being on paper, each one is incorporated with a metallic Silver, Brass or Copper.

By using a metallic backing instead of paper, photos will not fade, breakdown or crack. This a patent pending process.

The MetalTone process uses old darkroom technology with a film negative. Each one is exposed and developed by hand so that every print is an original work of art - - there are no two alike.

One of the many distictions of MetalTones is the three-dimensional effect that the metallic incorporation brings. It also gives the luminosity of a lighted picture to each Print. Due to the unique nature of the MetalTones process, promotional photos (such as some of the ones shown on this website) must be taken at an oblique angle.

Thom Coffman has compiled several Limited Edition Print series that have been offered in fine Art Galleries throughout the Western United States, honored spots such as Aspen CO, Jackson Hole WY and Bend OR...

Because each print is done by hand, one at a time, Thom Coffman intends to stay as exclusive as possible to ensure the fine quality of each print.
