About the Item

Both painting and photograph, a painted print. This is a multistep combination of painting and a kind of alternative photographic process from the 1800s: cyanotype. The outline of the agapanthus flowers were first drawn in pencil, then painted —not with ink or paint, but with light-sensitive photo emulsion in a dark room. Once dry, the artist carefully laid tiny wildflowers across the painted shape and exposed the painting to sunlight to create a pattern. Areas covered during exposure remain white while areas exposed turned blue.The intricate 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. Unframed. Signed on the back. On 100% cotton watercolor paper with straight cut edges, not deckled edges. Free shipping to the United States.
