cyanotypes

[pennie_laine]

this is what i did for my final art project. i just now got around to scanning them in, so i thought i'd share. its a process called cyanotype where you take regular old drawing paper and brush this concoction of chemicals on it. the chemicals are special because they turn blue when exposed to UV light. so i brushed up my drawing paper, let it dry
