I love creating abstract cyanotypes. I somehow see objects in them. What do you see in this cyanotype? I made this with corrugated art paper. It's on display at the Blackstone Public Library and is available for sale! #cyanotype #cyanotypes #art #artist #Abstract

This cyanotype was painted loosely on a canvas square, which gives it the lighter shades. I used a bicycle gear. I then embellished on dots with yellow acrylic paint. A pop of color in a world of blue! On display at the Blackstone Public Library and available for sale :). #art #artist #cyanotype

I created this abstract cyanotype by using a spray bottle to spray the cyanotype liquid onto watercolor paper. Then I laid 4 intriguing autumn leaves down onto it. The sun exposed the liquid, and here is the result! On display at the Blackstone Public Library and available for sale #cyanotype #art

Normally I create my cyanotype artworks using watercolor paper. The watercolor paper soaks in the cyanotype liquid and creates a good resulting image. However, mounted canvas can also work. If you use canvas in its 'traditional' starting state... #cyanotype #cyanotypes #art #artist

What do you see in this brush-stroke cyanotype? I'll give you a hint. I created this using the translucent gloves I'd been wearing to mix the cyanotype liquid. You can see this at the Blackstone Public Library - it's available for sale! #cyanotype #cyanotypes #art #artist

My back yard is a wildflower meadow for the bees and butterflies :). I created this cyanotype sun print using one of my wildflowers. I painted the liquid on the watercolor paper with brush strokes revealing rough edges. On display at the Blackstone Public Library! #cyanotype #cyanotypes #art #artist

I created this fun abstract cyanotype with one of my favorite tavern puzzles. I love solving tavern puzzles. I know the solution is in there somewhere, if I just persevere. #cyanotype #cyanotypes #art
