randomized

I’m still very much in love with this process. It may be that I just am addicted to the colour blue, or that I like the fact that if you take a fast and loose approach to producing a cyanotype, there is a kind of random magic that occurs with them. Scientifically, I’d have to say that Mike Ware is pretty much the ultimate authority on this process. Also, although I never got to take his alternative processes class, the work of Paul Karabinis is also quite inspiring. However, for me, chaos is my guide:
