Prussian Blue

I’ve had a love affair with the cyanotype process for over a decade, and I teach the process every summer during my summer class with Oxbridge. Recently I did a workshop at the Chouette au Loing, a new multi-use space that has opened up in town.

I love seeing people discover this process for the first time, their eyes bright with the spark of creativity and possibility. Everyone feels so fulfilled at the end, having made something beautiful from scratch, with their own hands. Here’s to #humanmade!

We used plants and negatives, brushes and sponge brushes, and a UV light, because at this time of year the sun still can’t be counted on. I love seeing everyone experiment, and how some people adore seeing the brush strokes, and others prefer clean, minimalist borders.

We made a bit of a creative mess, as you do. #myhappyplace
