Moonlight Beech Tree (original botanical cyanotype on paper, 18 x 18 inches/ 45 x 45 cm)
(18 x 18 inch original cyanotype on cotton watercolor paper)
This was made with living branches from a beech tree. The format is 18 x 18” square, unlike most of my large cyanotypes which are made using 18 x 24 inch paper. A square is perfectly balanced in the same way that a circle is and it exudes a kind of calm. This size would fit well in a 24 x 24 inch square frame with a 3-inch mat border all around.
My botanical cyanotypes are each one-of-a-kind slow contact photographs made outdoors using natural sunlight and real plants. There is no lens and there is no etched plate or printing press. While traditional cyanotypes are a crisp white silhouette against a dark blue background, I like to manipulate the process for a softer effect. This is a multiple-exposure print, meaning that the paper underneath the plants was exposed to light for differing amounts of time, creating the varying shades of blue. The leaves in this print are a slightly darker blue than in my ‘Summer Night’ prints made using the same species of beech tree.
UNFRAMED. Depictions of works on paper in frames and in situ are just to give a sense of scale and to know how they would look once matted.
All prices include free shipping within the United States via UPS ground shipping. A tracking number will be provided.
