March in Indigo: Celebrating Cyanotype Artist Laura Bridges

Wiltshire artist Laura Bridges creates cyanotype images on paper and fabric. 

Cyanotype is a camera-less, early photographic printing process that produces a distinctive, cyan-blue print. Using flowers and foliage from her garden, Laura creates one of a kind images, using the sun to expose the photographic chemicals. Laura also draws inspiration from decorative tiles, vintage fabrics and ceramics, often using their patterns in her work. She is selling one off original framed pieces, cards and small gifts. Keep an eye out at the Crafty Hive as new pieces will appear over the month now that we have some spring sunshine, and Laura can get to work in her garden once more!
