This original one-off is a combination of painting and an antique photographic process, cyanotype. I drew the silhouette of a California native coastal madrone tree branch and painted it in —not with ink or watercolors, but with the light-sensitive photography chemicals used to print cyanotypes (also called sun prints and blueprints).
The blue and white pattern seen in each leaf which resembles painted Delft pottery is really a sun print or cameraless photograph of tiny plants laid on top during exposure to light. If you look closely you can see the outlines of tiny leaves or flowers.
