- The Pond II (hand-printed botanical cyanotype, 24 x 18 inches)Located in Oakland, CAUnframed. Although this looks like an etching or block print, it is a cyanotype, a type of 19th century cameraless photography also known as blueprints or sun prints. No ink or paint was involved and no photo negative either. This monotype was made by carefully arranging hundreds of individual blades of fresh-cut native Californian wild grass. The species of tall marsh grass is called Gray Rush or the latin name juncus patens. It is native to Northern California and grows in local wetlands. If not cut back, it it would grow over 4 feet tall. Every one of Christine So...Category

- Blue Maple IV ( 30 x 22 inch hand-printed botanical cyanotype)Located in Oakland, CAThese are two unframed botanical monotypes. This species of tree is a Dancing Peacock Full Moon Japanese Maple or in Latin, acer japonicum aconitifolium. The actual Japanese name is Mai Kujaku. Cyanotypes are a kind of 19th century alternative (cameraless) photographic process. While traditional cyanotypes are a navy blue background with sharp white silhouettes, this is a double exposure cyanotype. The two different shades of blue are created by exposing some parts of the light-sensitive paper to sunlight longer than others. The monochromatic multi-tone effect is rather like aquatint etchings.

- Evening Shade Triptych (3 hand-printed botanical cyanotypes, 30 x 22 in. each)Located in Oakland, CAUnframed. These are three separate unframed unique works on heavy 100% cotton Arches watercolor paper with deckled edges. They will ship stacked together flat in one large flat cardboard box. Each measures 30h x 22w inches. Cyanotypes are a kind of 19th century alternative (cameraless) photographic process. While traditional cyanotypes are a navy blue background with sharp white silhouettes, the artist manipulates the process to achieve multiple softer shades of blue instead, rather like aquatint etchings. The leaves of this print are pale blue and not white. the leaves in these are a bit darker while the background is a bit lighter than another similar size of triptych listed called "Spring Night Triptcyh." The prints in the other botanical triptych have a higher dark/light contrast as those were printed on textured (more absorbent) cold press watercolor paper rather than smooth hot press paper like this one. This is a double exposure cyanotype. The different shades of blue are created by exposing some parts of the light-sensitive paper to sunlight longer than others. All Christine So...Category

Artwork shipped carefully rolled and packaged in a tube. WHAT IS A CYANOTYPE? The cyanotype (a.k.a. sun-print) process is one of the oldest in the history of photography, dating back to the 1840's. Cyanotypes were then made famous by Anna Atkins, considered the first female photographer. Inspired by nature, we feel the need to look back at a craft that is handmade, analogue, and using an all-natural light source: the sun. Our cyanotypes are made by coating high-quality Italian watercolor paper with a light-sensitive emulsion. We then expose it in direct sunlight for several minutes using a photo negative to get the best image quality. Finally, the print is washed and fixed with water to stop the reaction and prevent fading. What you get is an amazing, royal blue image...Category
