About The Artwork These are the woods near my house in northern California where I walk. They are a great comfort to me. The changing light and weather transform them so that every hour and every day is like seeing a new painting. This is a hand-printed contact photograph of morning light glowing through the trees shading a path. It was made using the 19th century cyanotype photographic process. The paper is a heavy 100% cotton watercolor paper. Slight variations of shades of blue exist from edition to edition as each print was hand-painted with photo chemicals in the dark and printed in natural sunlight with variations in the weather and intensity of light causing some prints to be darker than others.

In her atelier in Amsterdam, she collects and repairs old blues, over-dyes pieces in indigo and makes cyanotype prints, she now offers workshops too.

WHAT IS A CYANOTYPE? The cyanotype (a.k.a. sun-print) process is one of the oldest in the history of photography, dating back to the 1840's. Cyanotypes were then made famous by Anna Atkins, considered the first female photographer. Inspired by nature, we feel the need to look back at a craft that is handmade, analogue, and using an all-natural light source: the sun. Our cyanotypes are made by coating high-quality Italian watercolor paper with a light-sensitive emulsion. We then expose it in direct sunlight for several minutes using a photo negative to get the best image quality. Finally, the print is washed and fixed with water to stop the reaction and prevent fading. What you get is an amazing, royal blue image, with absolutely no ink involved. And since each print is handmade, tones will give gorgeous, subtle variations. The beauty of cyanotypes is that each print is absolutely unique. FRAMING: All of our works, unless otherwise stated, are shipped carefully rolled in a tube, to prevent broken glass and keep shipping costs down. We generally suggest thin frames, either white aluminum, black aluminum, or a mild or light wood-plated aluminum. UV protective glass is also highly recommended. less
About this painting This surrealist series of the artist’s legs married with a series of flowers is fun, cheeky, and strangely compelling to look at. Titled “Phantasmagoria,” this sequence has been devised to be dream-like and convey a sense of being “out-of-this-world.” Media Cyanotype on 300gsm Hahnemühle paperLimited Edition of 80 x A4Limited Edition of 80 x A3Framing style please enquire about framing About the Artist Sophia Jenny is a visual and photographic artist based on Auckland’s North Shore.

About The Artwork New from May 2024. These Monterey pines are in the woods near my house across the bay from San Francisco. They never loose their leaves and look the same all year. No matter the season, they look magical emerging from the fog on mornings like this one. This is a handmade contact photo using the antique cyanotype process from the 1800s. All of my hand-printed cyanotype photographs are “contact photos”, which means that the large negative is exactly the same size as the paper that the photo is printed on because the negative is laid directly on top of the paper while it is being exposed. The paper is a heavy 100% cotton watercolor paper. Slight variations of shades of blue exist from print to print as each sheet of paper was hand-painted with photo chemicals in the dark and printed in natural sunlight with variations in the weather and intensity of light causing some prints to be darker than others.
