UNFRAMED. Ships rolled in a tube.

Though this monoprint looks like a woodcut or screenprint, this is actually a form of antique photography called a cyanotype. Every botanical print is entirely unique made using fresh cut branches laid in that exact composition on the hand-coated light-sensitive paper only once. My botanical cyanotypes are each one-of-a-kind slow cameraless photographs made outdoors using natural sunlight. There is no lens, no plastic photo negative, no ink, etched plate, carved block or printing press.

Hand-Printed Botanical, Landscape and Abstract Cyanotypes

Christine So is a native San Franciscan painter, photographer and printmaker living across the bay in the hills of Oakland, California. Her paintings and cyanotypes have been commissioned by Mayo Clinic, Ritz Carlton, Kimpton Hotels, Starbucks, MD Anderson Hospital in Houston, UTMB Hospital in Galveston and purchased by private collectors in 15 countries, among them, Timothée Chalamet.

Her calm, monochromatic, nature-inspired works on paper are not printed with ink but are actually a form of photography from the 1800s. She works in the antique photographic process of cyanotypes, creating abstract and botanical monotypes in shades of blue as well as landscape photographs of the foggy woods where she lives. The plants used in her one-off prints are cut from her own garden or found in the woods nearby and printed on pure cotton watercolor paper. No two are alike. Only her landscape photographs developed using giant negatives and the same cyanotype chemicals are replicable, yet even those hand-printed photographs each differ slightly.

Most of the works listed here on Wescover.com are unframed works on paper, specifically cyanotypes. However, Christine So paints in acrylic on canvas and oil on panel as well, and there are about 15 paintings on canvas and panel listed. Most are not framed, but a rare few are. Please read the entire description.

NOTE: Most of the works on paper are sold unframed --although the display photos may depict them as framed on a virtual wall to give a sense of their eventual size once a mat and frame are added. Take note of the item's description before purchasing.
