I think cyanotype is my favorite process so far. I like the way the materials can be manipulated and the extensive selection of items you can use to create a negative. The blue color is beautiful. I enjoyed learning about the chemical reaction that creates the Prussian blue dye. Another thing I enjoy about it is how it becomes a dye, a bridge to my interest in fibers and textiles. I enjoyed doing the presentation for Anna Atkins as well. It was very funny to read people’s impressions/ descriptions of her and about how her cataloging of British algae was a perfect use for a woman.
