Cyanotype Update
White Deer, (sketch) 24"x24"
The cyanotype experiments continue...
I am still exploring the alchemical mastery inherent in this historical photographic process. Seen here are the prints taken out of the water they were developing in. We can see the transitions from negative to positive image.
I consider these sketches while working out the dynamics of the process. Ultimately these will be larger pieces closer to 42"x42"
Chakra Goddess is available as a color print, but I wanted to see how this image transformed using this process. Once again this sketch on paper is in the middle of the developing process.
Dreams of Alchemy, (sketch) is an image in progress. I can see anomalies in the developing process. There is a serendipitous quality to the cyanotype method... hence it is very difficult to create a series where every piece looks exactly the same. Learning to surrender to the unique properties that this technique offers is a spiritual practice.
