The Dive
Wet Cyanotype
Framed 35 cm x 35 cm, without frame 23 cm x 23 cm
What is meant by new beginnings for an artist can be considered in various ways. For me, known primarily as a Dartmoor landscape painter using oils, acrylics and mixed media, it was the decision to look into other ways of developing my art, possibly towards abstraction. A visit to an exhibition about alternative photography and a well-timed workshop inspired me to explore cyanotype, particularly wet cyanotype, as an abstract medium. The piece shown is an example of my new beginnings.
