Delft Agapanthus 3 (18 x 24" painting-cyanotype hybrid on watercolor paper)
Unframed. Signed on the back by the artist.
Free shipping to the United States.
This is a combination of painting and a kind of alternative photographic process from the 1800s: cyanotype. I drew the silhouette of a flower and painted it in —not with ink or paint, but with light-sensitive photo emulsion. Then I laid tiny plants on top of the painted area and exposed it to light to create a pattern within the pattern.
The blue and white pattern seen in each petal which resembles painted Delft pottery is really a sun print or cameraless photograph of tiny plants laid on top. If you look closely you may see a tiny flower or two.
This the silhouette is that of an agapanthus flower, native to South Africa.
