Not a cloud in the sky—perfect cyanotype weather!
I’m out of 16x20 paper at the moment, so naturally… I went bigger.
Can’t wait to see how these prints turn out. Stay tuned! 🌞💙✨

Old Man’s Beard in golden hour.
The kind of light that makes you stop—and the soft, sweet scent that makes you stay a little longer.

Even the plants know how to pose when the light hits just right.

This wet cyanotype was interrupted by an unexpected spring rain — cutting its exposure short and gently washing away some of the chemicals. The result? A softer, more ethereal image than I originally intended.

I often say that wet cyanotypes are a collaboration between the elements, and this piece is proof. The streaks, the ghosted textures, the imperfect blues — all shaped by rain, time, and chance.

Not every artwork turns out how I imagined… and that’s exactly why I keep making them.
