Spring Night 2 (40 x 24 inches FRAMED. Original botanical cyanotype print on paper, 36 x 19 inches/ 91 x 48 cm)
40 x 24 inches FRAMED in a 3/8” slim white metal gallery frame with a 3-inch wide mat. Ready to hang.
SOLD SEPARATELY.
One of two prints in the same size of branches from the very same tree, Chinese on them. 36 x 19 inches / 91 x 48 cm.
This 36” (91 cm) long monoprint is of a Chinese Elm’s long slender branches that hang downward like those of willow trees. This unique cyanotype print was made using branches from a huge Chinese elm tree in San Francisco.
My botanical cyanotypes are each one-of-a-kind slow contact photographs made outdoors using natural sunlight. 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. There are no pure bright white parts of this print, only pale shades of blue and dark shades of blue.
This is a multiple-exposure print, meaning that the paper underneath the plants was exposed to light more than once, each time for a differing number of seconds, creating the varying shades of blue. The leaf shapes are not a bright white.
