More test Cyanotypes:


Using my new mixture I made some more test Cyanotypes with my readjusted acetates, I have already made the decision to not use three of the new acetates that I have and it's important that I see how successful the others are. 

These images are all successful, the contrast is good and allows for the images to be light and clear. The white tones of the paper oppose the darker blue colours. While the images are clear I noticed that the lines within each Cyanotype are slightly blurry that create this distorted atmosphere within the work. I think that characteristics of Cyanotypes blend well with the natural eeriness of the images. I have said this before but while looking at this work it really feels like I am glimpsing into a parallel universe or looking into a scene from a dream. The depth that the blue tones creates make it feel as if I could step right into the image and walk around. 

While these have been very successful on paper I will need to see how well these acetates work on calico, so this will be the next step within my project.
