Summer Garden (Unframed 40 x 26 inch original painting with cyanotype patterns)
(40 x 26 inch original painting and cyanotype print on paper)
**NOTE: Price for this 40 x 26” painting is lower than for others the same size due to the tiny yellowish brown pollen stains on the upper left side below the first flower crown.
This is a combination of painting and a kind of alternative photographic process from the 1800s: cyanotype. I drew the plant and painted it in —not with ink or paint, but with light-sensitive photo emulsion.
The blue and white pattern seen in each leaf which resembles painted Delft pottery is really a sun print or cameraless photograph of tiny plants laid on top. The tiny fennel or hemlock flowers laid across the painted silhouette of the larger agapanthus flower blocked the sunlight during exposure, leaving the paper white underneath while the rest of the painted area turned blue.
Unframed.
Signed on the back by the artist. Free shipping to the United States.
