Subtitle: That's Exactly What I'll Do!
It rained most of the day today...but I'm celebrating blue.
And while Sue and John were visiting....Sue and I played around with a few cyanotypes....this one of a fern with some vinegar spots
Here's the fern at the bottom which is growing like crazy...and there's a lot of new growth on my foxtail fern.
I spent most of the afternoon in the studio. I came across this sunflower stencil cyanotype and decided it would make a nice cut out journal cover. Here's the front and back.
I used a mix of papers and pockets...mostly in shades of blue. I hope to make a handful of these for the free little art library in Falmouth and I will include snippets and collage fodder.
Today rainbow is a Dotty collage inspired by my rainbow collage I posted yesterday. I couldn't love it more and seeing it again inspires me to try something a little more organic like this. Maybe I'll make a small one for a joy journal cover! Yes...that's exactly what I'll do.
MaryAnn, LOL! Thanks for finding the post of my rainbow collage! As you know, your post last night of your rainbow collage evoked memories of when you originally made it and inspired me to follow suit.
ReplyDeleteI like your celebration of blue here! The fern cyanotype from your time with Sue is so compellingly delicate. And look at that new journal, replete with blue cover! What a terrific idea to make a few for the free little art gallery in Falmouth.
I so remember you were inspired by my post...and that makes me smile. At the time I was so impressed and inspired by yours...and now I'm going to do something about it. Soon...ish.
DeleteI do still love blue! And I will love making cyanotypes and I especially like making these little journals.
The cyanotypes are so beautiful. Blue (and turquoise) are faves for me.
