At Nightfall, VII-4 Print

Cyanotype and watercolour, Original Work «At the Night VII» Watercolour and Cyanotype on Arches Paper 300 g/m2 Dimensions: 30 cm W x 40 cm H Another technique that is of particular interest to me is the “Cyanotype”. It is an old process of photographic reproduction by insolation. The Cyanotype is an old monochrome negative photographic process, through which we obtain a blue Prussian, blue cyan photographic print. This technique was developed in 1842 by the English scientist and astronomer John Frederick William Herschel. (Source: Wikipedia) When the sun is at its peak, I sometimes give up my brushes a little to create compositions based on this magical, unpredictable and dreamy technique. I use cyanotype sometimes alone or sometimes mixed with watercolor or gouache.
