Inspiration
Fingernail moon. Crescent moon. Sliver of silver moon. New moon to begin again. Set your sights and rise to the occasion moon. Fall down and get up again moon. Believe that you can do it moon. Reach your limit and keep going moon. Put your foot in your mouth but going to do it better next time moon. Don’t want to begin again but do it anyway moon. Reminder to begin again, every month if necessary, just like the new moon.


Lessons from the Moon Collection
This is a piece from the "Lessons from the Moon" collection. Each mixed media cyanotype in this collection reflects lessons from the moon, as she accompanies us every night through this global pandemic season.


About My Process
Cyanotypes are a photographic process that use a UV-sensitive emulsion that reacts with the sun to create ethereal images in blue and white. Since this process is so dependent on the weather, light conditions, seasons, and timing, there is an unpredictable nature to the outcome of each piece that can’t be replicated. To me, this is part of the mystery of this art form.

In addition to the outdoor elements required for cyanotype creation, I use plants, collage, and sometimes ink and acrylic to create each piece. Each piece is made on thick, bright white, Arches watercolor paper with deckled edges. It’s intriguing to me that the subject matter, the paper substrate, and even the piece itself uses Nature as an integral part of its creation process. I like to think that I'm collaborating with Nature to create art in celebration of Nature!

My hope is that when people experience this collection, they feel an immediate sense of connection and grounding with the Natural World. A moment of calm during the uncertain times around us.


Unique features
Please note that due to the cyanotype process, there may be slight undulations in the paper and each piece features a unique blue ranging from cyan to indigo to Prussian blue. This is normal. Refer to one of the included images to see examples of the variations in blue and deckled edges.

This piece is 22x 30 inches and unframed. It would look stunning when float mounted in a thin brushed silver, black, or light maple frame.
