Planning tomorrow’s trip out to Westlands Museum to see by Anita Walsmit Sachs. Route via 28-27-05-07-13-70. Glad to be back using a paper . Google Maps are useful for quick planning and a rough guide to timing, but are lacking numbered cycle waypoints, and don’t correlate with real-world signposts.

For the prompt “understory” I thought of ferns in the dappled light of the forest floor. This is my toned cyanotype of a fern on watercolour paper.

This is a cyanotype on top of turmeric to make an anthotype with fern leaf image on watercolour paper.

Cyanotype on delicate Japanese kozo (or mulberry) paper of some plants from my garden: Black-eyed susan and lemon balm.

I made some more cyanotypes. This toned cyanotype with fern didn’t turn out at all how I envisioned it but it’s a happy accident! I like the washing soda trails like shooting stars and gentle sepia tone.

This is my one of a kind wet cyanotype on water colour paper 11" x 14" has an image of leaves. I toned and tinted the cyanotype with green tea! Tannins in the tea add sepia tones to an otherwise blue print.

I made 4 more in my series of related prints about leafcutter bees, each unique. Similar to the print in the pollinator garden, but the prints in my shop are on lovely Japanese washi paper & feature different plants. These prints are both about, & a sort of collaboration with leaf cutter bees! These small, but multifarious native bees are important …

"Orange-red Auricula with Gooseberry Harlequin and a Spinning Caterpillar," Barbara Regina Dietzsch, 18th century.

Dietzsch was a member of a family of artists in Nuremberg; with a group of female artists there, she practiced a type of contemplative, almost scientific, botanical drawing style that was highly valued at the time. This is, in fact, a drawing, but was valued as highly as painting in its day.

From the Städel Museum, Frankfort, Germany.

This toned cyanotype combines images of various plants with a ghostly image of my linocut ‘Kaleidoscope of butterflies.’ Kaleidoscope is such a great term of venery for a group of animals!

This is another print employing both turmeric and cyanotype, to image fern and Virginia Creeper, with quite different results from the last. It shows the range of effects and elements of the unpredictable here!

This one of a kind cyanotype with tumeric sun print on water colour paper 11" x 14" has an image of virginia creeper leaves.

An anthotype is a sun print made with light-sensitive pigments. I painted pigment from tumeric directly onto water colour paper and then also treated it with photochemicals.

More experimenting with cyanotype! Found this lace curtain with the teacup pattern at the thrift store last week and it was just the thing. This image is a of lace, wild geraniums and lemon balm, toned and tinted with green tea, of course!

Here's some more grass. I think this was the favourite of the types I collected. I really like the shapes of the ears (massive assumption as to what they are called there).

It's been an exhausting week, and we're only halfway through. I'm attempting to get up the energy to take some more pics tonight, will see if I just pass out first.

Enjoy the sunshine (but stay safe).
