(Read instructions carefully)
Handprints are the clearest way to see lines, texture, finger spacing, mount areas, etc. For best results, use Sirchie Fingerprint Ink, which is the one I always use.
However, since it may be difficult to find fingerprint ink, you may want to use one of the following, to be applied with a roller or a small bottle:
- Black water soluble Block Printing Ink (Daler-Rowney,
Speedball, etc.)
- Reeves Lino Print Ink
- Water soluble paint, such as plaka paint
- Black children finger paint, slightly diluted
Cover your whole hand with ink or lipstick, including the edges of your hands. The edges of the print are important for the interpretation. The ink, paint or lipstick should be applied evenly without any smudge.
Place a sheet of plain white paper on a flat, hard surface. Don't put anything under the paper to cushion your hand, except if your palm is hollow (see below).
Place your hand on the paper in a position that feels natural to you. Press firmly, first on the back of the palm, then, in sequence, on each phalange of each finger. Twist slightly your thumb so that the tip prints flat on the sheet. Afterwards, lift your hand vertically in one clean motion while holding the sheet with your other hand (or ask for someone's help). Repeat the whole process with your other hand.
Hollow palm: if there is a white area in the middle of the print, place a folded tissue under the paper where your palm will be on the next print, so that the hollow part may be in contact with the sheet. Mention the tissue in the e-mail you will send with your prints.
Don't roll your fingers from side to side since it makes your fingers thicker than they really are and may lead to a false interpretation.
Make sure your prints are clear. Check sample of a "desirable" print.
If they are not clear, take the prints again. Check sample of an "undesirable" print. "Undesirable" prints may produce a false interpretation.
Scanning
(Read instructions carefully)
The prints may stay wet for a while. Once they are dry, take a scan of both of them using the following settings: 200 dpi, grey scale. Then reduce your images into a JPEG (*.jpg) picture at a compression rate of 15:1. Identify each image clearly. Make sure that the total size of your e-mail (i.e., message and images) is less that one megabyte, or send several e-mails.
PLEASE don't send a scan of your hands directly placed on the scanner, as it is impossible to see the texture of your skin or the areas actually in contact with the glass.
For the same reasons, DON'T use photocopies or faxed pages.
If you don't have scanning facilities and you don't mind sending your prints by regular mail, send me an e-mail so we can make arrangements.
Please note this service is no longer offered by email. But you can still make an appointment.
