PROCESS: The Cyanotype and Kallitype Processes are historic photographic processes (1842) in which chemicals are mixed and hand coated on a fine watercolor paper.

A large negative is created in the darkroom that is contact printed/exposed on the coated paper; however big the negative determines the size of the final image.

The Cyanotype yeilds a blue hue and the Kallitype a sepia hue.

These historic process works of art are beautiful and sophisticated with a painterly, organic aesthetic resembling 19th century drawings and etchings.
