8 Ardtornish flowers

Unusually for me, this small bookwork was made more as a reminder of a lovely holiday with some lovely people, rather than being a "serious" part of my practice. I taught the kids (and some of the adults) in my extended family how to make cyanotypes "in the field," exposing them to the Scottish summer sunshine and washing/processing in the open. These are a few of a series of postcards I made once the kids went off to do other things.

Friend and colleague Shauna McMullan recently created this piece at the Mitchell Library in Glasgow which marks the relocation of the Glasgow Women's Library to it's new home in the Mitchell. Shauna invited over 500 women to loan her a copy of a book written by a woman that has a predominantly blue spine. I (like two other contributors) chose Kathleen Jamie's "Findings".
