Sleeping with Buttercups (2024)

Drawn from life at #stjustlifedrawing at Sancreed using charcoal pencil then coated the paper with a mixture of ferric ammonium citrate and potassium ferricyanide.  I picked and pressed buttercups from my paddock and then arranged over the artwork and left in the sun for about 20 minutes.  I used water to wash the paper and to fix the image resulting in this stunning cyan blue picture.
