My cyanotypes are made using a multi-step photographic process. A solution of potassium ferricyanide and ferric ammonium citrate was mixed to create a photosensitive emulsion, which was applied by hand to watercolor paper and allowed to dry in darkness. The treated paper was exposed to ultraviolet light (sunlight) beneath an original photographic negative or object. The print was then rinsed in water to reveal a positive, monochromatic, cyan blue (Prussian blue) image. Digital manipulation of original photographs imparts depth, context, and texture into images along with engineered print processes and treatments with washes, watercolor tinting, gilding, inking, embroidery, collage, and toning.

I also create Lumens, Cyanolumens, Glass Cyanotypes and Lumen prints.
