Thanks, Teresa. I have done this for years, however, I had always placed leaves face down, rather than up. I will do them face down.

I think she's placing the leaves with the back side down on the gelli. The side facing up is the one we see when looking at the plant.

I absolutely love these! I am curious though... I am always careful about copyright infringements (in my usual works I don't have to worry about it) and I am wondering if it is ok to use old book pages, magazine photos, etc. when creating these TO SELL?

The true blue to use for Cyanotype is Prussian Blue. "Cyan" is just another word for blue, but to really mimic cyanotype, it's pretty easy to find Prussian Blue.

I find it DOES make a difference what kind of brayer you use. I have three - an ArtDeco/Plaid (cheap) an old Ranger (also cheap) and a Speedball, a few dollars more but well worth it. The Speedball works best by far. Because the roller is heavier, it spreads paint more evenly and over a wider surface. That means you need less paint and get better prints.

It seems odd to make fake cyanotypes when making cyanotypes is a simple process using sunlight and water. There's no cleanup or ink involved. 🐧💙🐧
@dawnesmith-sliming7004 3 жыл бұрын
Depending on where you live it can be expensive to get the supplies though.
@kcbirder 11 ай бұрын
Sunlight and water and ferric ammonium citrate or ferric ammonium oxalate, and potassium ferricyanide. You don't get blue with sunlight and water. And you do have to clean up...at least rinse the paper or fabric to remove the chemicals from the shaded part.

could you please linger on the finished print when you are in the speeded up mode? Otherwise we watch the process and get a quick view that is too fast to appreciate. thanks.
