as the seasons shift, i release a new batch of one-of-a-kind light drawings, here.
{additionally, i sell prints of all camera-based photography that you see on my website or on my instagram page…just send me a note if you’d like to inquire about printing something for you and to get info about sizing and pricing, etc…}
i have made light drawings for the last 30 years in my garden, using specimens grown there.
i make them on sunny days, mostly in summer, but every season yields something.
i love the tactile, unpredictable process, and how it preserves the garden, on paper.
each light drawing is unique and impossible to replicate, an alchemistic moment captured forever on paper.
light drawing is a 180+ year old photographic process that does not use a camera. instead, light sensitive chemicals are painted onto watercolor paper under cover of darkness. then, once the paper is dry, the paper is brought out into the sunlight and specimens are placed on top; after a period of time, the sunshine, paper, and pigments create a chemical reaction, leaving a shadow of the specimen on the paper.
*please note,
since each light drawing is completely unique, all sales are final, so please feel free to contact me if you have any questions prior to purchasing...i am happy to help! if you are local, you are welcome to come see the work in person before purchasing, if you would like. just let me know.
thank you for looking.
