Cyanotypes are the celestial dance of light and chemistry, a photochemical alchemy that transforms the invisible into the vividly blue, only to manifest as tangible art in our reality.
Traditional Cyanotype
Traditional Cyanotype is a photographic printing process that produces a cyan-blue print. The technique uses two chemicals, ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide, which react when exposed to ultraviolet light. The result is a unique, monochromatic blue artwork.

Mixed-Media Cyanotype
Mixed Media Cyanotype combines the classic cyanotype process with other artistic elements like watercolor, ink, pen, found materials, or collage. This creates a multi-dimensional artwork that offers both visual and tactile experiences.
NFT Cyanotype
NFTs, or Non-Fungible Tokens, are digital assets verified using blockchain technology. NFT Cyanotype is a digital version of a cyanotype artwork, tokenized on the blockchain. This allows for secure ownership, easy transfer, and the potential for interactive elements.
