Cyanotype of Poppies #5

Unique handmade print of wild Irish poppies growing in my garden. Print size 12″x 12″ . Signed by the artist. Ready for framing. Cyanotype printing is one of the oldest photographic printing processes in the history of photography. The distinctive feature of the print is its shade of cyan blue, which gives us the word blueprint. The process involves brushing on cyanotype sensitiser onto watercolour paper, arranging the leaves and exposing to ultraviolet light, then washing in water to fix the image. Magic!
