Studio Explorations.
The fun of cyanotype is that there is always something new to discover. These works are my experiments—playing with African cloth patterns, testing realistic drawing, and following inspiration wherever it happens to lead. They don’t sit neatly within a single theme, but each one opens up new possibilities and helps me see how my work might grow.
