Cyanotype Ornament - k contemporaryI created these original cyanotype ornaments from native plants I found while hiking the high alpine trails of Colorado. Each unique print is encased in a bright gold frame between layers of glass and hangs from a gold link chain. Ornaments are wrapped individually in gold speckled tissue paper and placed in a gold foiled pouch. My signature and the creation year are on each print's back. Dimensions: Hexagon shape, 3. 75"w x 3. 5"h Square shape, 3.
I begin by selecting my paints
I finished the work by adding the opaque white cold wax medium to obscure this leafy world
I love them for the delicate white flowers that turn into hundreds of little seeds pods at the season's end
Melting Metropolis is an abstract painting created with colored rice paper and acrylic paper
which results from its exposure to ultraviolet light
This bush carries delicate little yellow flowers that peek out from its glossy pointed leaves
and blue "rocket" popsicles
slate blues and gray tones surround me
The trip was great but I was unprepared for the rigid schedule that accompanied the group tour
The wispy clouds in a soft blue sky and the old stone walls that snake through the countryside

The flowers from my Colorado garden have turned into seed pods
