Nothing here is rushed.

Cyanotype is a process that refuses to be hurried. The sun sets the pace, shifting daily in intensity, temperature, and mood. Some days demand long exposures under a muted sky; other days, the chemistry develops quickly in bright, direct light. Either way, the print reveals itself when it’s ready - - not a moment sooner. Trying to rush it only leads to a muddy, uneven result, a reminder that the process works best when it’s allowed to unfold naturally.

There’s something grounding about creating art on the sun’s timeline. Cyanotype encourages patience, trust, and a kind of quiet collaboration with the conditions of the day. Let it process. Give it space. When the exposure is right, the blues deepen, the details sharpen, and the image settles into something worth keeping. Good things await when nothing is rushed.
