I have a selection of professionally printed greetings cards available. They are reproductions of my original cyanotypes. Some designs are low in stock, and I've decided that I won't be replacing them. I've taken the decision to discontinue all of my printed cards. They will remain available until stocks have sold.

They are available in packs of four or five cards as well as individually. However, I no longer ship individual cards to the USA due to increases in postage costs and changing regulations.

If you're in the USA and wish to purchase multiple cards or a single card with something else from my Etsy shop, please get in touch, and I'll provide an estimate of shipping costs. I apologise for this, but it is due to circumstances beyond my control.

I've just added these three handmade greetings cards to my Etsy shop 🌿💙 They're created from my original cyanotypes, so they are completely unique. Card Size 15 cm square.

They make lovely little gifts too and can be popped straight into a frame, making an affordable piece of original art.

Unfortunately, I am no longer shipping individual cards to the USA. However, if you wish to purchase multiple cards or a single card with something else from my Etsy shop, please do get in touch, and I will get an estimated cost for shipping ☺️

A little preview of my new collection of seaweed cyanotypes 🪸🌊💙 All created using seaweed washed up onto Nairn Beach in the north of Scotland on the Moray Firth.

I would love to know which is your favourite ☺️

They will be available soon...

An old one but a favourite 💚 A print from the edition of my etching "Cup of Hope" is heading off to its new home in the USA ☺️🙏

It's an edition of 50, printed on Somerset Satin paper with a mix of indigo and yellow ochre etching inks. Each print is slightly different as the colours are blended on the plate during wiping.

There are only a few prints left in the edition now.

An amazing cyanotype workshop today! We have had dark clouds and drizzle for most of the day. Not even a second of sunshine! Regardless of the lack of sunlight, 10 lovely people created an array of beautiful traditional and wet cyanotypes outside! 🌧🌿💙

To those of you who worry that you can't make cyanotypes unless the sun shines. Here is absolute proof that you can! The exposure times were longer. Around 30 minutes for traditional cyanotypes, but all were very successful.

This is in the north of Scotland too! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

A bit of fun in the studio today using up sepia etching ink after printing some etchings 😁

Inspired by Trina Baker on Facebook, I printed both sides of the peel of an orange on deli papers. Interesting textures for collage papers.

Seaweed creates the most wonderful cyanotypes! 🪸🌊💙 It captures the finest details, which have shown up beautifully in this traditional blue and white cyanotype that I made last week ☺️

The seaweed was washed up on our local beach, and I dried and pressed it before using it for this piece.

A new collection of seaweed cyanotypes will be coming soon...

I'm delighted that another one of my etchings is heading off to its new home tomorrow 😊🙏 It was inspired by a view of mountains in the Scottish Highlands, although it's an artistic interpretation rather than a specific location.

This is an aquatint etching on an aluminium plate, which I don't use very often in my work. It's a small edition of 10 printed in sepia etching ink on Somerset Satin paper.

I'll be printing some more of these soon, so I will relist it as soon as it's available again ☺️

I'm a bit late posting today, but Happy #nationalmeadowsday 🌸🌿💚

Shown is my original cyanotype called Meadow Flowers. Created using locally collected leaves and wildflowers, including poppies, sheep sorrel, Herb Robert, Shepherds Purse, Silverweed, ferns, and hawkweed 💙 It's still available if you would like to see the flowers of the meadow on your wall all year round ☺️

Inspired by reflections in the River Avon in Bath, this is an original hand-pulled print from an intaglio etching on a zinc plate. It's printed in Mid-blue etching ink on Somerset Satin paper.

It's an old etching, but one recently sold from my Etsy shop, so I've just added another ☺️🙏💙 It's a small edition of 10 prints.

There was a bit more sunshine this afternoon, so I took the opportunity to make some cyanotypes using specimens from my seaweed collection 🪸🌊🌞💙 I found this beautiful piece washed up on our local beach a few weeks ago and it's been patiently waiting in my press for its moment in the sun 🌞

Sometimes, a simple traditional blue and white cyanotype is all that is required ☺️💙🤍

1. Before exposure
2. After exposure
3. Removing the seaweed
4. Rinsing
