This is larger than all the other abstract cyanotypes of this series (22 x 30 in. rather than 18 x 24 in.) Once matted and framed it would cover closer to 28 x 36 or 30 x 40 inches on the wall.

Though this unique monotype resembles a watercolor painting or an aquatint etching, it is actually a form of photography called a cyanotype, photogram or sun print. What you see is a multiple-exposure lensless photograph. Each is entirely unique. These exact lines, shapes and shades of blue cannot be recreated as the of the exposure of the paper was heavily manipulated by me during each printing.

A traditional single-exposure cyanotype yields a white silhouette against a dark blue background. But instead of creating a white image by blocking light with solid objects on the light-sensitive paper, I used water to block the light, creating subtle gradations of darkening blue as I submerged the light-sensitive paper for different carefully timed exposures under water.

On heavy acid-free watercolor paper. Signed on the back.
